| 520 | _a"The Best Short Stories of 1917 and The Yearbook of the American Short Story," edited by Edward J. O'Brien, is a collection of short stories compiled during the early 20th century. This anthology presents a selection of the most notable American short fiction published that year, showcasing a variety of voices and styles. The book likely covers themes reflecting the social dynamics and cultural issues of the time, featuring characters that portray different facets of American life, lending insight into the era's narrative trends. The opening of the anthology includes a diverse array of characters and settings. The first story, "The Excursion" by Edwina Stanton Babcock, introduces a whimsical excursion on a steamboat, where Mrs. Tuttle brings along a parrot, sparking gossip and intrigue among the other passengers. The narrative captures the social interactions, vanity, and humorous undercurrents of the gathering. By starting with this tale, the collection sets the tone for exploring the complexities of human relationships and societal norms, suggesting that themes of human folly and social observations will permeate the subsequent stories as well.
