| book description |

A collection of the year's best short stories, selected by celebrated bestselling author Lauren Groff, author of Matrix and The Vaster Wilds, and series editor Heidi Pitlor. ""There have never been as many exquisitely built stories in existence than there are now,"" proclaims guest editor Lauren Groff in her introduction. This abundance led to a volume of robust stories with the nerve to push against narrative expectations. The Best American Short Stories 2024 boasts a collection of twenty stories that ""buzz with their own strange logic."" A man becomes a tourist in his own hometown. An unemployed jeweler sails in an antique slave ship. A therapist decides to call an ex-patient years after their last session. Daring and resonant, the stories in this volume invite in Groff ""a feeling that both the author and I were simultaneously discovering something together."" The Best American Short Stories 2024 includes JAMEL BRINKLEY - ALEXANDRA CHANG - LAURIE COLWIN - MOLLY DEKTAR - TAISIA KITAISKAIA - DANIEL MASON - JIM SHEPARD - AZAREEN VAN DER VLIET OLOOMI - PAUL YOON - and others
