Here are the greatest stories of one of the greatest writers working in any genre today. All ten of the stories gathered here are Hugo or Nebula award winners - some even have the distinction of winning both.

The Triumph of the Egg is a fictional panorama of a great region of our country, unfolded by a writer who - to quote the New York Times - "depicts life in the Midwest as Dostoevsky pictured the many colored life of Russia, with almost as wonderful a touch of genius, with a more concentrated and daring skill." This coveted 1921 collection is an example of what a book of stories can be when a writer of vision deals with the materials of American life.

"Enfermaria nº 6” é ambientada em um hospital provincial e explora o conflito filosófico entre Ivan Dmitritch, um paciente, e Andrey Ragin, médico-chefe de um hospital. Ivan denuncia a injustiça que vê em toda parte, enquanto o médico insiste em ignorar a injustiça e outros males; parcialmente como resultado desta forma de pensar, ele negligencia resolver as péssimas condições da ala psiquiátrica. Quando o próprio Dr. Ragin é lá internado, ele percebe a falácia de sua filosofia e, tarde demais, entende que o mal deve ser enfrentado.

Guarding a social media model was not on my agenda. Then again, neither was losing half my hearing in a bomb blast five years ago. Fate has a way of doing what it wants in my life. I'm supposed to be the level-headed brother, not the one who schemes his way into a woman's bed and flat-out refuses to leave it again. But here we are anyway . . . with Makenzie Baird looking way too good in nothing but a smile and my shirt for me to start complaining now. This little model is going down. And I intend to ride her the whole way.

Die besten Balladen und Erzählungen von Friedrich Schiller sollen zur Wiederentdeckung des großen deutschen Dichters einladen. „Bewundert viel und viel gescholten“, haben Schillers Gedichte überlebt: die Konkurrenz Goethes, den Spott der Romantiker und die Last des Schulpaukens. Wunderschön und wunderbar.
