I adore this book. I travel with it, visit friends and relations with it and give it to best friends. Barthelme, Updike, Calvino, Capote, Vonnegut, Pound - and that's just a tiny fraction of the huge talent waiting to entertain and edify any questing reader. (Thought I'd just say that...)

750 pages of good writing is a bargain 11 April 2004
By Ian Muldoon - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
Well I have never read a copy of the magazine The Paris Review but have subscribed to Granta since it started and subscribe to The New Yorker. The first story in the anthology "Terrific Mother" by Lorrrie Moore was enough for me to give this five stars - let's face it, where can you get such a thrill for $21? There may be some stories, poems, interviews, that don't grab me with the same electric immediacy as that first story, but I don't have to read it from cover to cover. It's one of those terrific bedside books as far as I'm concerned and an absolute joy to explore.

Best Anthology, Longest Title Award 30 July 2003
By Jamie Jahncke - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
This book makes a perfect gift for both serious literature junkies and those who have blown off reading for the past fifty years. If the former applies to you, here's the best from the best. If you're in the latter category, this book will catch you up to speed. The Paris Review published the first chapter of Kerouac's ON THE ROAD, the first chapter of McInerney's BRIGHT LIGHTS, BIG CITY, the first chapter of Franzan's THE CORRECTIONS, etc., etc., etc. Obviously, they've been able to spot new talent from the day they started even to today. And of course, their fantastic interviews with writers themselves are legendary. A must for the collector and the neophyte alike.

Hmph... 7 July 2003
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
Well, as a whole the book was certainly worth reading. It was a bit less organized than the title perhaps suggests...but who said a book can't be mildly random. I have only two warnings for prospective buyers. 1) The poetry selections weren't uniformly fabulous, and, in my ignorant opinion, lagged behind the short stories in quality. 2) A lot of the big name authors appear only in passing. For example, only two selections of Faulkner's work appear...both short (less than a page in length) segments of interviews on the art of writing. Have fun reading the book...just don't expect it to deliver on all its promises.
