This is an excellent book by an academic about the art of the short story with an emphasis on the stories of Ernest Hemingway. The general, nonacademic reader will find it most approachable. Lamb looks at stories by de Maupassant, Willa Cather, Chekov, James, and others in light of their influence on young Hemingway. Budding short-story writers would be well advised to look at this book as an inspiration about how to approach narrative, etc. When I finished, I launched into a major re-read of Hemingway's 50-plus short stories, as well as many by de Maupassant, one of my literary heros. Marvelous reading all around.
