From the ghostly and unlikely, to pungent social realism, and from the comfortable to the challenging, whether rural or urban, supernatural or true-to-life, in demotic Scots vernacular and elegant English prose, this anthology shows the vitality of the Scottish short story.The collection includes such wonderful traditional tales as `The Wee Bannock' and household names such as Sir Walter Scott, Robert Louis Stevenson, J. M. Barrie, as well as works by writers as varied as James Kelman, Violet Jacob, Neil Gunn, Eric Linklater, Lewis Grassic Gibbon, Muriel Spark,Alasdair Gray, Ronald Frame, and Janice Galloway.
