Synopsis: There have been many anthologies of English-language short stories - but until now, no major, sweeping overview of short stories from writers throughout Great Britain, across multiple genres, of vastly varying lengths and styles and for all readers. Included are not only the most famous creators of short stories, but also many very extraordinary but now unknown writers. This is the ultimate collection, in two beautiful hardback volumes, for different readers of different tastes and at different points in their reading career. Edited and with an introduction by Philip Hensher, the award-winning novelist, critic and journalist.
