Collected for the first time in one volume.
How does money--or the lack of it--affect our lives? What happens when the rich meet the poor, when status comes with a price tag, when personal desires do battle with financial concerns? This unique anthology offers a mosaic of answers, with stories by:
T.C. Boyle * Barbara Kingsolver * Alice Walker * John Cheever * Francine Prose * F. Scott Fitzgerald * Jack London * Kate Chopin * Ethan Canin * Gloria Naylor * Sandra Cisneros * O. Henry * Theodore Dreiser * Stephen Crane * Kate Braverman * James T. Farrell * Charlotte Perkins Gilman * and more.
* An outstanding lineup of authors both classic and contemporary
用户评论

Barbara Solomon为Signet编选的几本集子都很精彩。虽是本mmp但很用心，前言写得很好，每个短篇前面也会对作者有介绍。
