The Top 10 Short Stories - Love: The top ten short love stories of all time
Σχετικά με το ηχητικό βιβλίο
In this series we try to offer up tried and trusted ‘Top Tens’ across many different themes and authors. But any anthology will immediately throw up the questions – Why that story? Why that author?
The theme itself will form the boundaries for our stories which range from well-known classics, newly told, to stories that modern times have overlooked but perfectly exemplify the theme. Throughout the volume our authors whether of instant recognition or new to you are all leviathans of literature.
Some you may disagree with but they will get you thinking; about our choices and about those you would have made. If this volume takes you on a path to discover more of these miniature masterpieces then we have all gained something.
In this volume our classic authors turn their pens to the immortal quest for love. What they find and what they reveal are, of course, illuminating, beguiling and the best of magical literature.
