Modernist Short Stories

James Joyce

Grouping together works by various authors into a theme should be relatively simple. Choose a theme, choose an author, choose a story. But some themes can be a little baffling. Modernism is a lovely bright term that should do exactly what it says on the cover. Yet the authors and stories themselves can be baffling in some respects or streamlined and clean lined words in another. Definitions of what is Modernism can seem arbitrary or blurred. In essence we can agree on some but not on others: 01 - Modernist Short Stories - An Introduction 02 - Eveline by James Joyce 03 - The Yellow Wallpaper by Charlotte Perkins Gilman 04 - A Dill Pickle by Katherine Mansfield 05 - Here We Are by Dorothy Parker 06 - The Mark on the Wall by Virginia Woolf 07 - Odour of Chrysanthemums by D H Lawrence 08 - Rooms by Gertrude Stein 09 - Bliss by Katherine Mansfield 10 - The Defense of Strikerville by Damon Runyon 11 - Araby by James Joyce 12 - Miss Brill by Katherine Mansfield 13 - The Golden Honeymoon by Ring Lardner 14 - Kew Gardens by Virginia Woolf 15 - Speed by Sinclair Lewis 16 - Ariel's Triumph by Booth Tarkington 17 - The Garden Party by Katherine Mansfield 18 - White Bread by Zona Gale 19 - The Fly by Katherine Mansfield 20 - A Cullenden of Virginia by Thomas Wolfe 21 - The Dead - Part 1 by James Joyce 22 - The Dead - Part 2 by James Joyce Author - James Joyce.
