Short Story: Discussion Group

Zoom Participation | Available (Membership Required)

This session we will finish reading prize-winning short stories from the 2023 edition of The Best American Short Stories. This is an opportunity to read outstanding stories from both new and well-known authors, published in American or Canadian publications in 2022.

Each week we will read a short story and discuss our responses to what makes the story unique: themes, techniques, characters, atmosphere, etc. All class members participate, contributing multiple views of the same story. The results are stimulating, entertaining and sometimes surprising.

The anthology is:
The Best American Short Stories 2023, Min Jin Lee, Ed., with Heidi Pitlor (Boston, New York: Mariner Books, HarperCollins, 2023). Please, arrange access to this anthology to use for the class discussions. It is available in several formats: Kindle, paperback, Audible.

Class limit: 24
