Reseña del libro "The House of Fiction: An Anthology of the Short Story with Commentary (en Inglés)"
A good work of fiction, Caroline Gordon remarks in How to Read a Novel, is the competent fashioning of a story "out of the intangible, mysterious stuff of life." The House of Fiction, edited by Gordon and Allen Tate, is an anthology of short stories collected in the effusive light of that principle. Fiction is a craft; as such, they write, it has its "secrets of technique which not only appear in the works of all the masters of the craft but which have been handed down from master to master throughout the ages." Each of the twenty-three stories in this volume illustrates the various ways that those techniques can be (or ought not to be) employed, in the medium of the short story, in the pursuit of the art's final end. Most of these stories carry Commentaries to facilitate recognition of those techniques and their effects in a given story. Concluding the anthology is a brilliant Appendix of "Notes on Fictional Techniques," presenting the basic methods of the craft as well as the main faults of its inexperienced or impetuous practitioners.With its impressive array of stories, The House of Fiction powerfully displays the "vast front" of fiction's domicile. Its "windows" include the works of-among others-Edgar Allan Poe and Henry James; James Joyce and Franz Kafka; Stephen Crane and D. H. Lawrence; Katherine Anne Porter and William Faulkner; Truman Capote and Ernest Hemingway; and J. F. Powers and Flannery O'Connor.
