Aldous Huxley's stature as one of the giants of modern English prose and of social commentary in our time is confirmed in this gathering of his distinguished stories into a single volume. Twenty-one pieces are here, including The Gioconda Smile, Little Mexican, Young Archimedes, and Chawdron. Together they offer a complete view of Huxley's work in the genre, in which he established himself as an acknowledged master.
