"I'm not a big fan of short stories, but when I saw this book, I thought it would be just the thing for me. It was great as each story had a different author, and so each story had a different flavor. I think my favorite story was The Yellow Wallpaper by Charlotte Perkins Gilman."

    " Some of these short stories are incredibly impressive while others are as dull as can be. Fascinating selection of shorts. Worth the read. Tolstoy's was my favortite. "

    " Not so much of all time, or even really representative of "world" literature. Mostly stuff from modernism, heavy on the French and English. "

    " More like world's most pointless short stories. Well, gilman's the yellow wallpaper, mann's the path to the cemetery, borges' borges and I and just maybe updike's a&p were in a class of their own. But three out of 19 is a crappy score. "

    " The translation of Chekhov isn't the best and it's a little European-centric, but a good, solid, cheap book of short stories. "

    " Only read 3 or 4 of the storys from this book. But it is a decent collection of short stories. Plus it isn't even $4, so it's worth the price if you like the stories. "
