A review by behindthecritic
The Penguin Book of the Contemporary British Short Story by Philip Hensher
4.0
I really wanted to discover some new authors, read some authors I have always meant to have read and read more short stories. This collection ticked all of those boxes for me.
Like all short story collections, I preferred some stories more than others. However, I have left wanting to read more short story collections and read the works of several authors included in this collection.
