INTERNATIONAL SHORT STORIES: Contemporary Short Stories
INTERNATIONAL SHORT STORIES
Contemporary Short Stories
AH 106 Class Format D
This six-week class is an interactive adventure in reading and discussing works by acclaimed short story writers from around the world. Class volunteers select a story from the text, develop questions and lead the discussion.
The textbook is One World; a Global Anthology of Short Stories, published in May 2009, available in paper, new or used at Amazon.com. “All the authors belong to one world, united in their diversity and ethnicity. And together they have one aim: to involve and move the reader.” This is a new text for the class.
Note: Enrollment limited to 20. This class will not be recorded for later viewing. Please do not enroll in both American Short Story Masterpieces and International Short Stories so that the maximum number of OLLI members will have the opportunity to participate in these two small interactive discussion classes.
Discussion Leader/Developer: Gail Rothman, experienced book group leader.
