Short stories For students: Presenting Analysis, Context, and Criticism on Commonly Studied Short Stories
Short Stories for Students is designed to provide
readers with information and discussion about
a wide range of important contemporary and historical
works of short fiction, and it does that job very
well. However, I want to use this guest foreword to
address a question that it does not take up. It is a
fundamental question that is often ignored in high
school and college English classes as well as research
texts, and one that causes frustration among
students at all levels, namely—why study literature
at all? Isn't it enough to read a story, enjoy it, and go
about one's business? My answer (to be expected
from a literary professional, I suppose) is no. It is
not enough. It is a start; but it is not enough.
Here's why.
