Publisher Notes
This is the second anthology edited for Granta by Richard Ford, 1996 winner of the Pulitzer Prize for fiction, and it brings together ten of the finest American examples of a new literary genre, the "long story," related to, but significantly different from, the novella. Ford's first anthology, The Granta Book of the American Short Story, was published to great acclaim in 1992, whereupon it became the most frequently cited and authoritative collection of short stories on both sides of the Atlantic, selling over 60,000 copies.
