9 (short) Stories to read this summer
Although there is only one Nine Stories, Ashley my literature consultant has developed the following short stories list for me to supplement my 5 books list.
* Bartleby, the Scrivener - Herman Melville
* Hills Like White Elephants - Hemmingway/ Black Man & White Woman in Dark Green Rowboat - Russell Banks (counted as one for reasons of style and topic - plus they are super-short)
* The Yellow Wallpaper - Charlotte Perkins Gilman
* The Jolly Corner - Henry James
* The Cask of Amontillado - Edgar Allen Poe
* The Lady with the Little Dog - Anton Chekhov
* A Good Man is Hard to Find - Flannery O’Connor
* What We Talk About When We Talk About Love - Raymond Carver
* Happy Endings - Margaret Atwood
VERY excited!
