Stories for Men: An Anthology

Bruce L.R. Smith

4.9/5 (19574 ratings)

Description:Stories for Men, a seventy-five-year-old anthology edited by Charles Grayson, written in an age (1944) when such a title would scarcely raise an eyebrow. Imagine a book about men in which the featured theme is not rapists, child abusers, or men who never weep, feel little sorrow, or prefer dog fighting to baseball. The editor, Charles Grayson, hit the nail on the head in his "explicit" opening remarks. "The only claim we make for this book is that it doesn't pretend to offer the best, or the finest, in the world's foremost short stories by contemporary masters. Simply it is just a bundle of yarns by present day American writers, each dealing with a different phase of the actions and activities of men, designed for good reading." The text fulfills its mission. The work features little known short stories by such major writers as Erskine Caldwell on racial relations, James M. Cain on murder, James T. Farrell on street life, Dashiell Hammett on men and divorce, Ring W. Lardner on baseball, Damon Runyon on football, William Saroyan on horse racing, Thomas Wolfe on travel, and William Faulkner on foreigners, among many others.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
