Anton (Pavlovich) Chekhov is one of the great masters of modern short story. Chekhov portrayed often life in the Russian small towns, where tragic events occur in a minor key, as a part of everyday life. His characters are passive, filled with the feeling of hopelessness and the fruitlessness of all efforts. Some of his remarkable stories are Neighbours, Ward Number Six, The Black Monk, The Murder, Ariadne, The Man in a case, Gooseberries, About Love, Lady with the Dog. His last great story is The Betrothed. In this collection we present 100 best stories of Anton Chekhov. All stories are complete and unabridged.

The entire career or William Sydney Porter (O Henry) as a writer spanned less than 16 years. And even after almost a century, his writings are as lively and entertaining as ever. He is one of the most loved short story writers. Porter had published more than 300 short stories- stories which virtually defined that form for many years to come. Porter's stories are remembered for twist of plots and surprise endings. By any measurements one chooses to apply, qualitative or quantitative, William Sydney Porter should always occupy a unique place in American fiction writing. He deserves to be rediscovered by each succeeding generation of readers and scholars. In this collection, we present 100 best stories of O Henry. The stories are selected from The Four Million, The Heart of the West, The Trimmed Lamp, The Gentle Grafter, Strictly Business, Options, Six & Sevens, Roads of Destiny, The Voice of the City, Whirligigs and The Rolling Stones.

Somehow or other I will be famous, and if not famous, I will be notorious', declared Oscar Wilde. He proved to be both. Oscar Wilde was a genius and he transformed his talent into his stories, plays and poems. The world in which Oscar Wilde lived was riddled with hypocrisy and he exposed it in his writings. His only novel, "The Picture of Dorian Gray' was published in Lippincott's Monthly Magazine in 1890 and provoked a storm of protest from the Victorian society. 'It is a tale spawned from the leprous literature of the French decadents - a poisoned book, the atmosphere of which is heavy with mephitic odours of moral and spiritual putrefaction', wrote the critic from the Daily Chronicle. Oscar Wilde wrote a preface, which appeared separately in the Fortnightly Review in March 1891. It contains the famous passage : 'Books are well written, or badly written. That is all'. This volume contains Oscar Wilde's only novel, 'The Picture of Dorian Gray' and all other stories. All stories are complete & unabridged.
