The book boasts inarguable classics like Salinger's \"A Perfect Day for Bananafish,\" Annie Proulx's \"Brokeback Mountain,\" and Shirley Jackson's \"The Lottery\" alongside stunners to be rediscovered. Some stories defined a moment or a now-lost world (Isaac Bashevis Singer's \"The Cafeteria\"); others showed us a whole new way fiction could sound and feel (\"The Red Girl,\" by Jamaica Kincaid). \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWith this vivid selection, Treisman showcases how our fiction has changed over time, and reminds us that past literary fashions continue to ripple outward in the fiction we love today. What does a Donald Barthelme mean to the craft of short fiction now? What will a Yiyun Li mean to the next generation of readers and writers? This exquisite tour of the form as practiced at its highest level will leap directly into the hearts of readers of all ages, all stripes, and is a beautiful tribute to the magazine's influence on our literary culture over the last century.\u003cdiv style=\"display:none\"\u003eISBN-10: 0593801911\u003cbr\u003eISBN-13: 9780593801918\u003cbr\u003eAuthor: New Yorker Magazine Inc, Treisman, Deborah\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: Knopf Publishing Group\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Knopf Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover (Feb 2025)","offer_id":46080078184645,"sku":"9780593801918","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/6414\/2533\/files\/9780593801918.jpg?v=1776034356","url":"https:\/\/www.inveni.store\/products\/a-century-of-fiction-in-the-new-yorker-1925-2025","provider":"Inveni","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
