On the Best American Short Stories 2021
Pitlor, Heidi and Jesmyn Ward, eds. The Best American Short Stories 2021. Boston: Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, 2021. pp. 304. Cloth.
This is such a good collection of short stories, Jesmyn Ward knocked it out of the park here. The stories that really stood out to me as being excellent are “You Are My Dear Friend,” “Biology,” “The Rest of Us,” and “Paradise.” “Playing Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain” also was really thoughtful an interesting. I’m excited to read more of these collections!
