Description:

Short stories have always been a sort of instant access into an author’s brain, their soul and heart. A few pages can lift our lives into locations, people and experiences with a sweep of landscape, narration, feelings and emotions that is difficult to achieve elsewhere. In this series we try to offer up tried and trusted ‘Top Tens’ across many different themes and authors. But any anthology will immediately throw up the questions – Why that story? Why that author? The theme itself will form the boundaries for our stories which range from well-known classics, newly told, to stories that modern times have overlooked but perfectly exemplify the theme. Throughout the volume our authors whether of instant recognition or new to you are all leviathans of literature. Some you may disagree with but they will get you thinking; about our choices and about those you would have made. If this volume takes you on a path to discover more of these miniature masterpieces then we have all gained something. In this volume ‘Weird’ is exactly what these stories are. Although usually listed by its own library filing these stories, all written by women, may be weird by nature but definitely mainstream by reach. 01 - The Top 10 Short Stories - Weird Women - An Introduction 2 - Hodge by Elinor Mordaunt 3 - The Black Crusader by Alicia Ramsay 4 - Devereux's Last Smoke by Izola Forrester 5 - The Night of No Weather by Violet Hunt 6 - The Mystery of the Gables by Elsie Norris 7 - The Reaper by Dorothy Easton 8 - The Pavement by D K Broster 9 - The Wonderful Tune by Jessie Douglas Kerruish 10 - In The Fourth Dimension by Clotilde Graves writing as Richard Dehan 11 - Whittington's Cat by Lady Eleanor Smith Author - Elinor Mordaunt.
