What is The Best American Short Stories 2007 (The Best American Series ®) about?
In his introduction to this volume, Stephen King writes, Talent does more than come out; it bursts out, again and again, doing exuberant cartwheels while the band plays 'Stars and Stripes Forever' . . . Talent cant help itself; it roars along in fair weather or foul, not sparing the fireworks. It gets emotional. It struts its stuff. In fact, thats its job. Wonderfully eclectic, The Best American Short Stories 2007 collects stories by writers of undeniable talent, both newcomers and favorites. These stories examine the turning points in life when we, as children or parents, lovers or friends or colleagues, must break certain rules in order to remain true to ourselves. In T. C. Boyles heartbreaking Balto, a thirteen-year-old girl provides devastating courtroom testimony in her fathers trial. Aryn Kyles charming story Allegiance shows a young girl caught between her despairing British mother and motherly American father.
