Henry Prize Stories 2014\u003c\/i\u003e gathers twenty of the best short stories of the year, selected from thousands published in literary magazines. The winning stories roam the world, from Nigeria to Venice, from an erupting volcano in Iceland to a brothel in the old Wild West. They feature a dazzling array of characters: a young American falling in love in Japan, a girl raised by snake-handling fundamentalists, an old man mourning his late wife, and a fierce guard dog with a talent for escape. Accompanying the stories are the editor's introduction, essays from the eminent jurors on their favorite stories, observations from the winning writers on what inspired them, and an extensive resource list of magazines. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eMark Haddon, \"The Gun,\" \u003ci\u003eGranta\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStephen Dixon, \"Talk,\" \u003ci\u003eThe American Reader\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTessa Hadley, \"Valentine,\" \u003ci\u003eThe New Yorker\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOlivia Clare, \"Pétur,\" \u003ci\u003eEcotone\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDavid Bradley, \"You Remember The Pin Mill,\" \u003ci\u003eNarrative\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cbr\u003eKirstin Valdez Quade, \"Nemecia,\" \u003ci\u003eNarrativemagazine.com\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDylan Landis, \"Trust,\" \u003ci\u003eTin House\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAllison Alsup, \"Old Houses,\" \u003ci\u003eNew Orleans Review\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHalina Duraj, \"Fatherland,\" \u003ci\u003eHarvard Review\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChanelle Benz, \"West of the Known,\" \u003ci\u003eThe American Reader \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWilliam Trevor, \"The Women,\" \u003ci\u003eThe New Yorker\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eColleen Morrissey, \"Good Faith,\" \u003ci\u003eThe Cincinnati Review\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRobert Anthony Siegel, \"The Right Imaginary Person,\" \u003ci\u003eTin House\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLouise Erdrich, \"Nero,\" \u003ci\u003eThe New Yorker\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cbr\u003eRebecca Hirsch Garcia, \"A Golden Light,\" \u003ci\u003eThreepenny Review\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChinelo Okparanta, \"Fairness,\" \u003ci\u003eSubtropics\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKristen Iskandrian, \"The Inheritors,\" \u003ci\u003eTin House \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMichael Parker, \"Deep Eddy,\" \u003ci\u003eSouthwest Review\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMaura Stanton, \"Oh Shenandoah,\" \u003ci\u003eNew England Review\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLaura van den Berg, \"Opa-Locka,\" \u003ci\u003eThe Southern Review\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Jurors on Their Favorites: Tash Aw, James Lasdun, Joan Silber\u003cbr\u003eThe Writers on Their Work\u003cbr\u003ePublications Submitted\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Laura Furman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/09\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 416\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.90h x 5.10w x 1.00d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780345807311\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eEntertainment Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/05\/2014 pg. 69\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/15\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLaura Furman, series editor of \u003ci\u003eThe O.
