This is an excellent book for multicultural studies of American fiction and good for reading pleasure or educational uses. The writers included are of the best calibre and the stories varied in tone, humor and drama, tragedy and laughter. Daniela Gioseffi's story Rosa in Television Land is absolutely superb and entertaining. Excellent! I love Nathaniel Hawthorne's little known story, The Maypole of Marymount. Well done. Great anthology.
