Rabindranath Tagore’s short stories, written mostly towards the end of the 20th century, are relevant even today because of the author’s profound understanding of the human mind. Mostly set in rural and urban pre-partition Bengal, these inherently simple stories have a universal appeal and beautifully portray the intricate aspects of the nature of society and the people in it. They have the capacity to touch your core and leave you thinking deeply about human values. Each and every story in this collection rings of classic Tagore. If you want to delve into the kaleidoscopic universe of India’s greatest writer, poet, and thinker, this is the best place to begin. The stories have been edited and presented for the reading of contemporary audience.

In her preface to Robert Walser's Selected Stories, Susan Sontag describes Walser as "a good-humored, sweet Beckett." The more common comparison is to "a comic Kafka." Both formulations effectively describe the reading experience in these stories: the reader is obviously in the presence of a mind-bending genius, but one characterized by a wry, buoyant voice, as apparently cheerful as it is disturbing. Walser is one of the twentieth century's great modern masters—revered by everyone from Walter Benjamin to Hermann Hesse to W. G. Sebald—and Selected Stories gives the fullest display of his talent. "He is most at home in the mode of short fiction," according to J. M. Coetzee in The New York Review of Books. The stories "show him at his dazzling best."
