Esteemed critic Blanche Gelfant's brilliant companion gathers together lucid essays on major writers and themes by some of the best literary critics in the United States. Part 1 is comprised of articles on stories that share a particular theme, such as "Working Class Stories" or "Gay and Lesbian Stories."

D. Salinger, and Jamaica Kincaid, as well as engaging pieces on the promising new writers to come on the scene.
