Designed with the undergraduate in mind, the anthology includes a helpful introduction by Professor Beaty that defines the short novel in contrast to the short story and the longer novel and explores the formal and thematic corollaries of this particular literary form. Additionally, a short biographical headnote precedes each selection to prepare the reader to experience, appreciate, and understand the works as fully as possible during a first reading. A brief critical afterword follows each novel.
