Tom Hanks Movies In Order
What is your favorite book of short stories (fiction only)? And why…?
I am not a fan of Wikipedia as a source. A website that will pull up “Bonfire of the Vanities” as a Tom Hanks movie and not an event in history has it’s priorities gravely out of order.
1. Smoke and Mirrors by Neil Gaiman
2. The Illustrated Man by Ray Bradbury
1. Neil Gaiman is easily my favorite author. I love these short stories. They range from beautiful to fantastic to downright creepy. His writing style is wonderful, his stories engaging. I read everything I can get my hands on by him, but I am most engaged by his short stories. The stories in Smoke and Mirrors are beautiful. They say just enough and leave just enough to the imagination. I’m babbling now, but I adore them and really just want other people to read them so that they can adore them too. I’m being literal on the fantastic part, though – he writes (often dark) fantasy. And he does it really wonderfully.
2. Ray Bradbury has a gift as a science fiction and fantasy author. I think that the Illustrated Man is his best collection, containing some of my favorite short stories of his.
If I had to choose just one, I’d go with Smoke and Mirrors because it has a wider range and is generally more diverse than the Illustrated Man. However, both are incredibly excellent collections of short stories.
