Telling Tales

"Rarely have world writers of such variety and distinction appeared together in the same anthology. Their stories capture the range of emotions and situations of our human universe: tragedy, comedy, fantasy, satire, dramas of sexual love and of war, in different continents and cultures." "The twenty-one stories are written in different voices - individual styles - exploring the possibilities of the use of words by living writers. All twenty-one writers have given their stories - chosen by themselves as representing some of the best of their lifetime work as storytellers - without fee or royalty."--BOOK JACKET
