As the title might suggest, "Fiction 100: An Anthology of Short Stories" is a textbook, probably for high school students, that brings together 100 works of short fiction. It comes complete with questions to ponder at the end of each story, a glossary of literary terms, bibliographies of the authors and, yes, footnotes too! One can tell how out of date this book is (published in 1985) by noting a footnote to a Woody Allen story that mentions O.J. Simpson - the latter is described as an ex-football player who more recently was known for television ads. That said, it’s kind of nice to have a book containing a lot of great authors, from Alice Adams to Richard Wright, and everything in-between. Curiously, the stories are ordered alphabetically by author’s last name, certainly something I have never seen before! Not a book to read cover-to-cover, but one to dip into from time to time when you have 15 or 20 free minutes. ( ) sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica
