The Foundations of Fiction - Modernism

In this series we turn the pages of classic short stories to put together the literary building blocks of how a particular genre or theme began, how it built its foundations to become the well-loved and well-worn genre that it is today.Do authors have the same ideas at more or less the same time? Or can they sniff out an opportunity as to which way the tastes of an audience are moving. Success undoubtedly builds success and in literary terms we can more politely say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, and the surest way to reach a hungry readership is to build on the fortune and flair of your literary colleagues. It’s a reality that the term ‘modernism’ was first used for stories well over a century ago. Like fine wines they have aged remarkably well. In this volume the talents of Virginia Woolf, F Scott Fitzgerald, Katherine Mansfield, James Joyce are testament to the craft, imagination and literary chops these authors have brought to prose in one of its most enduring literary movements. 01 - Foundations of Fiction - Modernism - An Introduction2 - Bliss by Katherine Mansfield3 - Bernice Bobs Her Hair by F Scott Fitzgerald4 - The Legacy by Virginia Woolf5 - The Dead by James Joyce6 - Here We Are by Dorothy Parker7 - Odour of Chrysanthemums by D H Lawrence8 - If I Were A Man by Charlotte Perkins Gilman9 - Tomorrow by Eugene O'Neill10 - Friday by Zona Gale11 - The Defense of Strikerville by Damon Runyon12 - Rooms by Gertrude Stein13 - The Mark on the Wall by Virginia Woolf14 - The Garden Party by Katherine Mansfield15 - Eveline by James Joyce16 - His Smile by Susan Glaspell17 - A Cullenden of Virginia by Thomas Wolfe18 - Miss Brill by Katherine Mansfield19 - The Golden Honeymoon by Ring Lardner20 - Winter Dreams by F Scott Fitzgerald21 - Kew Gardens by Virginia Woolf22 - Ariel's Triumph by Booth Tarkington23 - Speed by Sinclair Lewis24 - Araby by James Joyce25 - The Ice Palace by F Scott Fitzgerald26 - The Fly by Katherine Mansfield27 - White Bread by Zona Gale28 - A Dill Pickle by Katherine Mansfield

19th Century English Love Stories Not by Jane Austen

In this series we listen to short stories that are NOT by perhaps the most well-known author of this type. But the many other rich talents in the volume may have treated the subject matter a little differently, or were perhaps just overlooked in the stampede to applaud the winner, but these authors are of equal merit. Each of their works is laden with talent, has purpose, and is rich and textured in this gloried niche of literature.1 - 19th Century English Love Stories Not by Jane Austen - An Introduction2 - The Lagoon by Joseph Conrad3 - The Mortal Immortal by Mary Shelley4 - The Mass for the Dead by Edith Nesbit5 - The Sexton's Hero by Elizabeth Gaskell6 - Diary of a Plain Girl by Amy Levy7 - Modern Melodrama by Hugo Crackanthorpe8 - Suggestion by Mrs Ernest Leverson9 - The Last House in C Street by Mrs Craik10 - The Story of Salome by Amelia Edwards

Sad Love - Short Stories

Love. Perhaps the one word solution for everything. An emotion, a state of mind that we strive for, search for. A wondrous force that binds, inspires, and a force that can spin out of control; unbalanced and fragile. Love reflects, changes and embraces us all. In this series we explore the many facets of love through literary talents that span both time and country. When love’s flaws begin to stretch and amplify then heartbreak must surely follow. Love requires not just yearning and devotion but commitment and protection of an ideal. When that crumbles love finds pain, being in love becomes more difficult. And what our literary greats share with us in this difficult volume brings that truth home.1 - Sad Love - Short Stories - An Introduction2 - The Lagoon by Joseph Conrad3 - The Rendezvous by Ivan Turgenev4 - Eveline by James Joyce5 - Mr and Mrs Dove by Katherine Mansfield6 - Two Little Soldiers by Guy de Maupassant7 - On the Gull's Road by Willa Cather8 - Pyramus & Thisbe by Ovid9 - About Love by Anton Chekhov10 - Desiree's Baby by Kate Chopin11 - The Canary by Katherine Mansfield12 - Odour of Chrysanthemums by D H Lawrence13 - The District Doctor by Ivan Turgenev14 - The Furnished Room by O Henry15 - A Dill Pickle by Katherine Mansfield16 - The Shaker Bridal by Nathaniel Hawthorne17 - Her Lover by Maxim Gorky18 - Mrs Pierrepoint by Amy Levy19 - The Nightingale and the Rose by Oscar Wilde20 - The Victory by Rabindranath Tagore21 - Since I Died by Elizabeth Stuart Phelps22 - The Jew by Ivan Turgenev23 - The Informer by Joseph Conrad24 - Life of Ma Parker by Katherine Mansfield25 - The Dead - Part 1 by James Joyce26 - The Dead - Part 2 by James Joyce
