Short Story America: Volume II

Bys: Alan Heathcock, Vanessa Hemingway, D.G. Bracey, et al.

This is the second volume in the acclaimed series of short stories from Short Story America. Called "literary fiction at its best" and "better than 'Best America Short Stories'" by critics and readers, this anthology features today's best short stories, from both established and emerging authors. As award-winning author Alan Heathcock writes in the foreword to Volume II, "An anthology like Short Story America is the exact kind of book that can change the world, its myriad voices spinning yarns of woe and whimsy, making you tremble, cry, laugh, swoon, and maybe, just maybe, to cause you to close the book, look up from the pages a little bleary, and know you'll never be the same, transformed by what you've just read."
