Description
'Some Anomalies of the Short Story' a novel by the famed American novelist, editor and literary critic William Dean Howells, takes a look at the art of writing short stories. Howells asks and attempts to answer many questions on the subject such as, "One of the most amusing questions concerning the short story is why a form which is singly so attractive that everyone likes to read a short story when he finds it alone is collectively so repellent as it is said to be. Before now I have imagined the case to be somewhat the same as that of a number of pleasant people who are most acceptable as separate householders, but who lose caste and cease to be desirable acquaintances when gathered into a boarding-house."
