A few pages can lift our lives into locations, people and experiences with a sweep of landscape, narration, feelings and emotions that is difficult to achieve elsewhere.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn this series we try to offer up tried and trusted ‘Top Tens’ across many different themes and authors. But any anthology will immediately throw up the questions – Why that story? Why that author?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe theme itself will form the boundaries for our stories which range from well-known classics, newly told, to stories that modern times have overlooked but perfectly exemplify the theme. Throughout the volume our authors whether of instant recognition or new to you are all leviathans of literature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSome you may disagree with but they will get you thinking; about our choices and about those you would have made. If this volume takes you on a path to discover more of these miniature masterpieces then we have all gained something.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn this volume words sparkle and dance with a verve and purpose that other literary talents quite simple do not possess. Known principally for their novels the short story in their hands is fresh, compelling; a world of wonders. Genius is written with their names.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e01 - The Top 10 - The Classic Novelists - The Men\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e2 - The Signalman by Charles Dickens\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e3 - Araby by James Joyce\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e4 - The Crocodile.
