Audiolibro Top 10 Short Stories, The - Unreliable Narrator

Short stories have always been a sort of instant access into an author's brain, their soul and heart. A few pages can lift our lives into locations, people and experiences with a sweep of landscape, narration, feelings and emotions that is difficult to achieve elsewhere.

In this series we try to offer up tried and trusted 'Top Tens' across many different themes and authors. But any anthology will immediately throw up the questions Why that story? Why that author?

The theme itself will form the boundaries for our stories which range from well-known classics, newly told, to stories that modern times have overlooked but perfectly exemplify the theme. Throughout the volume our authors whether of instant recognition or new to you are all leviathans of literature.

Some you may disagree with but they will get you thinking; about our choices and about those you would have made. If this volume takes you on a path to discover more of these miniature masterpieces then we have all gained something.

In this volume our authors play games. Their talents are undoubted, but their intentions are to lead us astray, maybe to confuse or place many a red herring in our path. With the undoubted talents of Robert W Chambers, J M Barrie, Nikolai Gogol, George Eliot amongst those telling the truth short stories may never be the same.
