Omschrijving

""Short Stories Old And New"" is a collection of short stories compiled by C. Alphonso Smith. The book features a variety of classic and contemporary stories from authors such as Nathaniel Hawthorne, Edgar Allan Poe, Mark Twain, and O. Henry, as well as lesser-known writers. The stories cover a range of themes and genres, including romance, mystery, horror, and humor. Each story is accompanied by an introduction and notes from the editor, providing context and insight into the author's life and work. This book is an excellent choice for readers who enjoy short fiction and want to explore the breadth of the genre.Plot. ""Esther"" seems to me the best-told story in the Bible. Observe how the note of empty Persian bigness versus simple Jewish faith is struck at the very beginning and is echoed to the end. Thus, Ahasuerus ruled over one hundred and twenty-seven provinces, the opening banquet lasted one hundred and eighty-seven days, the king's bulletins were as unalterable as the tides, the gallows erected was eighty-three feet high, the beds were of gold and silver upon a pavement of red and blue and white and black marble, the money wrested from the Jews was to be eighteen million dollars, etc.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
