This anthology is in many was a ‘best of the best’, containing gems from thirty-four of Britain's outstanding contemporary writers. It is a book to dip into, to read from cover to cover, to lend to friends and read again. It includes stories of love and crime, stories touched with comedy and the supernatural, stories set in London, Los Angeles, Bucharest and Tokyo. Above all, as you will discover, it satisfies Samuel Butler's anarchic pleasure principle: 'I should like to like Schumann's music better than I do; I daresay I could make myself like it better if I tried; but I do not like having to try to make myself like things; I like things that make me like them at once and no trying at all ...'

A beautiful, moving collection of short stories, in many of which Updike revisits the haunts of his childhood from the vantage point of old age. In 'Fiftieth' old friends reconnect at a class reunion, and one of them is left wondering, 'What does it mean: the enormity of having been children and now being old, living next to death.' In the story 'The Full Glass' the protagonist describes somewhat ruefully the rituals of old age. Before going to bed, he raises his nightly water glass 'drinking a toast to the visible world, his impending disappearance from it be damned.' In 'Varieties of Religious Experiences' a grandfather, visiting his daughter in Brooklyn Heights, watches the tower of the World Trade Centre fall, and his view of a God is forever altered. Again and again in these memorable stories, Updike strikes to the heart, giving words to what is so often left unsaid. He is at once witty, devastatingly observant, touching - and, of course, a consummate storyteller. This is a collection that will be admired and cherished.

Stinson's thorough chronological survey of Pritchett's stories intertwines commentary about the writer's developing skill, his characteristic themes and techniques, and the pros and cons of his narrative styles with a discussion of the individual stories. Stinson's portrait of the artist shows a subtle humorist and a revealer of truth through ironies. "The short-story writer's duty is to destroy generalization," Pritchett has said, and Stinson finds this creed practiced throughout Pritchett's work, manifest in the writer's knack for uncovering buried or half-buried character traits.

Many’s the boy who has said: “I’m not afraid to taste cider, or beer, or wine, just this once. I know where to go, and where not to go, and what I can stand. And I don’t need any pledge. And if I want to smoke a cigar I can smoke one, and there stop. And I can read one bad book and no more, if I set my heart upon it. And I can spend an hour with Jim Brown and not swear, even if he does. What’s the use of a fellow’s going to excess every time? Why can’t he have a little of these things even if they are not quite so good, and stop just where one wants to?” Yes, but nine chances to one, the boy will keep coming nearer and nearer to Danger Cliff, and then in an instant his head will whirl, and over he will go and disappear in darkness forever....FROM THE BOOKS.
