Laurel short stories ; LC165

Brilliant stories from the contemporary literature of Russia, Ireland, Italy, Spain and the United States.

Nothing more clearly reveals the shrinkage of our planet than the simple fact that regardless of background and nationality, great writers speak to us all. Two Italians and a large earthenware jar, two Irishmen and a small gold coin, two Americans and a pistol with a broken pearl handle, an Odessa gangster and the world he ruled-these are the world in which we live, all of us, author and readers alike.

Filipe Alfau - The beggar. Saul Bellow - Looking for Mr. Green. Luigi Pirandello - The jar. Walter Van Tilburg Clark - Hook. Katherine Anne Porter - The downward path to wisdom. F. Scott Fitzgerald - The world`s fair. James Joyce - Two gallants. William Goyen - The white rooster. Joaquin Arderius - The bath of death. Peggy Bennett - `And i am black, but o! my soul is white`. Isaak Babel - Benya Krik, the gangster. J. F. Powers - The eye. James Agee - The morning watch.
