The Best British Short Stories of 1922 is a collection of thirteen short stories edited by Edward J. O'Brien. The stories were selected from various British authors and published in the year 1922. The collection includes works by some of the most renowned British writers of the time such as H.G. Wells, Virginia Woolf, and D.H. Lawrence, among others. The stories cover a wide range of themes and genres, including romance, mystery, and social commentary. The book is a fascinating snapshot of British literature in the early 20th century and provides a glimpse into the cultural and social issues of the time. The Best British Short Stories of 1922 is an excellent read for anyone interested in British literature and history.Looking back on it from this distance of time--it began in the early and ended in the middle eighties--I see the charm of ingenuous youth stamped on the episode, the touching glamour of limitless faith and expectation. We were, the whole little band of us, so deliciously self-sufficient, so magnificently critical of established reputations in contemporary letters and art. We sniffed and snorted, noses in air, at popular idols, while ourselves weighted down with a cargo of guileless enthusiasm only asking opportunity to dump itself at an idol's feet.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
