Short S tory
A short story is a prose story which usually
describes a single main event, has a limited number
of characters, and is much shorter than a novel. It is
fi ctional work depicting one character's inner confl ict
or confl ict with others, usually having one thematic
focus. Short stories generally produce a single, focused
emotional and intellectual response in the reader.
