About this title: Following the immense success of "The Art of the Tale", Daniel Halpern has assembled the next generation of short-story writers -- those born after 1937, which combines the best of the established masters as well as the fresh, new voices of writers whose work has seldom been translated into English.

"Single best anthology of short fiction I've run across. Mixes things up with lesser known masterpieces from literary giants and includes many worthy writers often ignored elsewhere."
"I'm so glad that my teacher of "Reading Like A Writer" chose this anthology of short stories for our class. I learned a ton about my own writing through analyzing craft techniques such as family, place, and dialogue, of other writers. This collection is now a night stand staple, which I can't wait to revisit time and time again."
