Short Stories About Revenge

F Scott Fitzgerald

Betrayal is perhaps the worst kind of human humiliation. Trust is given, words exchanged of steadfast support and suddenly for unfathomable reasons of family, loyalty, love or greater gain elsewhere you are cast aside. It’s difficult to justify and painful to receive. It can bruise lives and is often the cause of a need, a want, a desire for revenge. And by some measure this is not like-for-like or tit-for-tat, this is exacted for at a much higher cost. They say Revenge is a dish best served cold. Our classic authors who range from Edgar Allan Poe and Alexander Pushkin to Susan Glaspell and Paul Laurence Dunbar serve it up in many a manner, in many a style but always with relish. 01 - Short Stories About Revenge - An Introduction 02 - Bernice Bobs Her Hair by F Scott Fitzgerald 03 - The Cone by H G Wells 04 - Hop Frog by Edgar Allan Poe 05 - Mother Sauvage (La Mere Sauvage) by Guy de Maupassant 06 - The Lumber Room by Saki 07 - The Shot by Alexander Pushkin 08 - The Caballero's Way by O Henry 09 - Captain Rogers by W W Jacobs 10 - The Signal by Vsevolod Garshin 11 - The Bride Comes to Yellow Sky by Stephen Crane 12 - Laura by Saki 13 - The Scapegoat by Paul Laurence Dunbar 14 - The Lie by Leonid Andreyev 15 - A Jury of Her Peers by Susan Glaspell 16 - Sredni Vashtar by Saki 17 - The Hand by Guy de Maupassant 18 - The Middle Toe of the Right Foot by Ambrose Bierce 19 - The Cold Embrace by Mary Elizabeth Braddon 20 - The Music on the Hill by Saki 21 - Revenge by Samuel Blas 22 - The Man in the Bottle by Gustav Meyrink 23 - Behind the Curtain by Gertrude Barrows Bennett writing as Francis Stevens 24 - The Iron Shroud by William Mudford 25 - Mateo Falcone by Prosper Merimee 26 - The Sentimental Mortgage by Arthur Lynch 27 - The Octoroon's Revenge by Ruth D Todd 28 - The Spectre Bridegroom by William Hunt 29 - Revenge by Ambrose Bierce 30 - The Vendetta by Guy de Maupassant 31 - The Hounds of Fate by Saki 32 - The Cask of Amontillardo by Edgar Allan Poe Author - F Scott Fitzgerald.
