The O. Henry Prize Stories by

5.0

This was the first O. Henry collection I've read. Although I have heard mixed feelings about the O.Henry collections in the past, I think this one is great. Each piece is diverse and masterful, and I loved reading the notes by the authors at the end of the book. The 3 judges essays about their chosen favorites are energetic and wonderful. I can easily see any of these stories being heavily anthologized in the future. Highly recommended for an anthology of contemporary fiction.
