The five short stories presented in this book cover a period of about two centuries and represent good examples of how the short story may be considered the most modern form of literary expression. The texts come with an introduction, notes, activities, and a historical outline. All the activities help understand, interpret and analyse the texts and provide food for thought for further development. The short stories included are: "Tobermory" by Saki, "Life of Ma Parker" by K. Mansfield, "Cat in the Rain" by E. Hemingway, "Genesis and Catastrophe" by R. Dahl, and "All Summer in a Day" by R. Bradbury.
