The nine short stories collected here, selected by our judge and panel of readers from a pool of over five hundred stories, admirably showcase the range, vitality, and distinction of the contemporary literary short story. Kimberly Willardson's winning story, "Winter Memories of the Summer Bear," was chosen from the 2008 contest's nine ?nalists by our judge, Pulitzer Prize winner Robert Olen Butler.
Awful! I was so disappointed. I thought I was getting a book written by Robert Olen Butler. I had just read Had a Good Time and enjoyed it thoroughly. This book is a compilation of short stories that he awarded. After reading only the first paragraphs of the most prized story, I had to slam the book shut due to offensive language. I am sorry to report that Mr. Butler's standards are not nearly as high as I assumed.
