Reviews
"I wanted them all, even those I'd already read." -Ron Rosenbaum, The New York Observer "Small wonders." - Time Out London " [F]irst-rate…astutely selected and attractively packaged…indisputably great works." -Adam Begley, The New York Observer "I've always been haunted by Bartleby, the proto-slacker. But it's the handsomely minimalist cover of the Melville House edition that gets me here, one of many in the small publisher's fine 'Art of the Novella' series." - The New Yorker "The Art of the Novella series is sort of an anti-Kindle. What these singular, distinctive titles celebrate is book-ness. They're slim enough to be portable but showy enough to be conspicuously consumed-tiny little objects that demand to be loved for the commodities they are." -KQED (NPR San Francisco) "Some like it short, and if you're one of them, Melville House, an independent publisher based in Brooklyn, has a line of books for you... elegant-looking paperback editions ...a good read in a small package." - The Wall Street Journal, "Small wonders" - Time Out London "I wanted them all, even those I'd already read." -Ron Rosenbaum, The New York Observer, "Small wonders" -Time Out London "I wanted them all, even those I'd already read." -Ron Rosenbaum,The New York Observer, "I wanted them all, even those I'd already read." -Ron Rosenbaum, The New York Observer "Small wonders." - Time Out London " [F]irst-rate&astutely selected and attractively packaged&indisputably great works." -Adam Begley, The New York Observer "I've always been haunted by Bartleby, the proto-slacker.

Synopsis
He asked himself what is a woman standing on the stairs in the shadow, listening to distant music, a symbol of. Often cited as the best work of short fiction ever written, Joyce's elegant story details a New Year's Eve gathering in Dublin that is so evocative and beautiful that it prompts the protagonist's wife to make a shocking revelation to her husband--closing the story with an emotionally powerful epiphany that is unsurpassed in modern literature. The Art of The Novella Series Too short to be a novel, too long to be a short story, the novella is generally unrecognized by academics and publishers. Nonetheless, it is a form beloved and practiced by literature's greatest writers. In the Art Of The Novella series, Melville House celebrates this renegade art form and its practitioners with titles that are, in many instances, presented in book form for the first time., A New Year's Eve gathering in Dublin is the setting of this elegant, accessible masterpiece that ends with a signature epiphany by the protagonist, who offers a perspective on the lives, dreams, and feelings of the party's guests. This beautifully packaged series of classic novellas includes the works of masterful writers. Inexpensive and collectible, they are the first single-volume publications of these classic tales, offering a closer look at this under-appreciated literary form and providing a fresh take on the world's most celebrated authors.
