Summary

The Norton Book of American Short Stories embraces many of the most famous examples of the genre—from "Young Goodman Brown" to "The Lottery"—but it also includes lesser-known stories of equal merit by many famous authors: Irving's "The Devil and Tom Walker," Faulkner's "Wash," and Edith Wharton's masterly ghost story, "Pomegranate Seed."
