The Granta Book of the American Long Story Hardcover – October 1, by Granta (Author), Richard Ford (Author, Editor) out of 5 stars 8 ratings.

In the years since, Ford has been reading new stories and rereading old ones and selecting new favorites. There are two Granta American short fiction collections, both of which were selected by Richard Ford, roughly fifteen years apart, and they reflect a development in the American short story, as well as in Richard Ford becoming a monumental asshole. As a result, the first collection is a marginally better selection of stories, and contains a much, much better introduction.
