Featuring 45 stories, including new stories by 18 of the writers featured in the original - The New Oxford Book of Canadian Short Stories offers an engaging survey of Canada's leading writers and finest short stories. Here readers will find gems by W. P. Kinsella, Morley Callaghan, Timothy Findlay, Matt Cohen, and such renowned authors as Alice Munro and Margaret Atwood herself.
