At the start of summer, a lonely and thoughtful teenager, Evie Boyd, sees a group of girls in the park, and is immediately caught by their freedom, their careless dress, their dangerous aura of abandon.

Sittenfeld was met by the same feeling selecting the stories for this year's edition. The result is a striking and nuanced collection, bringing to life awkward college students, disgraced public figures, raunchy grandparents, and mystical godmothers. To read these stories is to experience the transporting joys of discovery and affirmation, and to realize that story writing in America continues to flourish."-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://hclib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S109C6069614</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://hclib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S109C6069614</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2020 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://hclib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/6069614109</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781328485366/MC.GIF&amp;client=hennp&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Best Short Stories 2021]]></title><description><![CDATA["Twenty prizewinning stories selected from the thousands published in magazines over the previous year--continuing the O. Henry Prize's century-long tradition of literary excellence. Now entering its second century, the prestigious annual story anthology has a new title, a new look, and a new guest editor. Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie has brought her own refreshing perspective to the prize, selecting stories by an engaging mix of celebrated names and young emerging voices. The winning stories are accompanied by an introduction by Adichie, observations from the winning writers on what inspired them, and an extensive resource list of magazines that publish short fiction."]]></description><link>https://hclib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S109C6211375</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://hclib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S109C6211375</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><pubDate>Sun, 31 Jan 2021 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://hclib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/6211375109</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>The O.
