The Best American Short Stories 2005
This short story anthology series will always be on my TBR list. I am trying to catch up to the current year by reading a couple of past issues each year.
This year's guest editor is Michael Chabon. I have not read any of his books although he won the Pulitzer in 2001 for [book:The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay|3985. I'm not sure if I will put that on my already super long TBR list. My favorites:
Until Gwen by Dennis LeHane
Eight Pieces for the Left Hand by J. Robert Lennon
First Four Measures by Nathaniel Bellows
The Scheme of Things by Charles D'Ambrosio
The Cousins by Joyce Carol Oates
Justice Shiva Ram Murthy by Rishi Reddi
There seemed to be a few with the point of view of a young boy or adolescent. Those always grip my emotions.
In any case, I found most of Mr. Chabon's selections to be terrific.
