The authors in the edition I own include Dorothy Parker, Tillie Olsen, Katherine Mansfield, Joyce Carol Oates, Henry James, Ambrose Bierce, Charlotte Perkins Gilman, V.S. Naipual, Lorrie Moore, Truman Capote, Langston Hughes, John Updike, Frank O'Connor, Ralph Ellison, Amy Tan, Louise Erdrich, Raymond Carver, James Baldwin, Alice Walker, Margaret Atwood, Shirley Jackson, Eudora Welty among others. Not the same as one in a review naming Dostoevksy, Gogol, Turgenev, Crane, Malamud, Porter, Bellow. So this exists in several editions, and can't be taken as a "best" of the short story (otherwise where is Cather, Chekhov, Hawthorne, Joyce, de Maupassant, O Henry, Poe, Saki, Twain?) but it is a very strong collection. I was impressed by the earlier edition assigned me in high school, and this one holds up well too. Both as best I can remember carry Shirley Jackson's "The Lottery"--among the most memorable and powerful short stories I've ever read. ( )
