"Superb Collection and Production"
Cannot recommend this one highly enough. All the stories have been excellent. Funny often, witty, everything you could want, with a great mix of authors and narrators- all well matched. Huge scope and variety. These are not ones you'll get necessarily everywhere else but they are perfect as short stories. They really show what the form can do. But without relying on those few short stories you'll have been forced to read in every grade at every school. Head and shoulders above other collections I've tried so far. Even the eras are mixed- older to modern. Congratulations to the compilers, producers, and narrators for really doing justice to great authors! And my thanks.
"hotchpotch assortment of forgettable tales"
i chose the title mainly based on the list of luminary authors and readers. i found the stories of no relevance to each other and generally of little dramatic interest . Quality of reader performance is also inconsistent.
"OVERALL, A GOOD CHOICE WITH SOME GREAT NARRATION"
Enjoyed about half of the stories, particularly Thurber and Saki and skipped over the period/Victorian pieces, worth the cost, as provided me with good escape and if you like literature you'll enjoy more than half.
