Henry Prize Stories 2015\u003c\/i\u003e gathers twenty of the best short stories of the year, selected from thousands published in literary magazines. The winning stories span the globe--from the glamorous Riviera to an Eastern European shtetl, from a Native American reservation to a tiny village in Thailand. But their characters are universally recognizable and utterly compelling, whether they are ex-pats in Africa, migrant workers crossing the Mexican border, Armenian immigrants on the rough streets of East Hollywood, or pioneers in nineteenth-century Idaho. 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\u003e\u003ci\u003eFinding Billy White Feather \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePERCIVAL EVERETT \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Seals \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLYDIA DAVIS \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eKilifi Creek \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLIONEL SHRIVER \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Happiest Girl in the Whole USA\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMANUEL MUÑOZ \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eA Permanent Member of the Family \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRUSSELL BANKS \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eA Ride out of Phrao \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDINA NAYERI \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eOwl\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEMILY RUSKOVICH \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Upside-Down World \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBECKY HAGENSTON \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Way Things Are Going \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLYNN FREED \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe History of Happiness \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBRENDA PEYNADO \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Kingsley Drive Chorus \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNAIRA KUZMICH \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eWord of Mouth \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEMMA TÖRZS \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eCabins \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCHRISTOPHER MERKNER \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eMy Grandmother Tells Me This Story \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMOLLY ANTOPOL \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Golden Rule \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLYNNE SHARON SCHWARTZ \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eAbout My Aunt \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJOAN SILBER \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eBa Baboon \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTHOMAS PIERCE \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eSnow Blind \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eELIZABETH STROUT \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eI, Buffalo \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVAUHINI VARA \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eBirdsong from the Radio \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eELIZABETH MCCRACKEN \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFor author interviews, photos, and more, go to www.ohenryprizestories.com\u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Laura Furman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Anchor Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/15\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 432\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 8.70h x 4.70w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781101872314\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/15\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLaura Furman, series editor of \u003ci\u003eThe O.
