First published in 1933, following A Farewell to Arms and Death in the Afternoon, this collection of 17 stories includes "A Way You'll Never Be"; "Fathers and Sons"; and "A Clean, Well-Lighted Place," which James Joyce called "one of the best short stories ever written." It also includes three stories not in the original collection, "The Capital of the World"; "Old Man at the Bridge"; and "The Short Happy Life of Francis Macomber," in which a cowardly hunter, shown up by his guide and ridiculed by his wife, comes to terms with his fear of death.
