I like the book. But since it’s a used book their were scribbles in it that weren’t really notes.

*by Z***H on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 26, 2017*

I really enjoy the wonderful anthologies for their variety of short stories, making so many authors available to me that I may not ever encounter otherwise. While there were a few stories I had previously read, they happened to be ones that I enjoy. I still have several left to read, but of the 50 stories included, I had only previously read a few like Tim O'Brien's "The Things They Carried" and "Brownies" by Z.Z. Packer. Many of the stories I've read so far have been very enjoyable.Melanie Rae Thon's "Xmas, Jamaica Plain" is a brilliant story told through the first person point of view about a tragic drug-related death. Rick Moody's "Boys" is a well-designed story told with a 'long time' narrative. There have been humorous stories like "Orientation" by Daniel Orozco and "The School" by Donald Barthelme. "The Cavemen in the Hedges" by Stacey Richter might be my favorite so far.This is a great collection of short stories and it's also inexpensive. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a good assortment of fantastic contemporary stories in one book. I look forward to reading the rest of the stories!

    Every story is a gem.
  

*by R***H on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 22, 2014*

Over the years I've read a boatload of short stories.  I can't say may judgement is always right the first time.  Some stories entertain me wonderfully only to leave me dissatisfied in the aftermath. Other stories mystify or disappoint me when I first read them  only to leave me thinking I've discovered on of the greatest short stories ever at some later sitting.  I've read the "Best American Short Stories" over the years and for at least half of them it's a question of whether I can push myself through to the end.  None of the stories in this collection is that way.  They grip me from the first and leave me thinking about them long after I've finished. Some I've read when they were first released, others in collections and many I was unfamiliar with.  Some of these stories have led me to seek out the author unfamiliar to me and seek out more of his work.  I recommend this collection highly.
