Some well - known anthologies of short stories include 'The Norton Anthology of Short Fiction'. It contains a wide range of classic and contemporary short stories from various authors and cultures, which is great for both students and general readers who want to explore different styles of short - story writing.
First, you can ask for recommendations from friends or librarians. They might suggest some popular anthologies based on your interests. For example, if you like mystery, they could recommend anthologies that focus on mystery short stories.
In most cases, it's possible. However, you need to be aware of the rules and requirements of each anthology. Some might have exclusivity clauses or specific conditions that could prevent simultaneous submissions.
Well, 'O. Henry Prize Stories' is an excellent pen anthology of short stories. Every year, it compiles the best short stories published in various magazines. The stories are often characterized by their unexpected endings, which is a signature of O. Henry's style. Additionally, 'Granta Book of the American Short Story' is also a good choice as it showcases the richness of the American short - story tradition.
One characteristic is the variety of ideas. Since different authors contribute, there are diverse concepts about future tech, alien life, etc. For example, in some stories, time travel is a central theme, while in others, it's about post - apocalyptic worlds.

I'd also recommend 'Time Travel: A Science Fiction Anthology.' As the name suggests, all the stories in this anthology revolve around the concept of time travel. It has stories that play with different theories of time, such as the grandfather paradox, and offer really interesting perspectives on how time travel could change our understanding of history, present, and future.
Sure. 'The Science Fiction Hall of Fame, Volume One' is a great one. It contains many classic short science fiction stories that have had a huge influence on the genre. Another is 'The Year's Best Science Fiction' series, which compiles the top science fiction short stories each year.
