BEST EUROPEAN FICTION 2010 collects stories from thirty countries across Europe, debuting fiction by well-established writers such as Alasdair Gray, George Konrád, Julián Ríos, and Victor Pelvin alongside stories by a new generation of European authors, many of whom have never before been translated into English. "The stories you will find in this volume," writes Aleksandar Hemon in his Introduction, "inescapably question and probe and sabotage various national myths ... unabashedly questioning the propriety of the old forms in the new set of historical and political circumstances." Bringing together Irish plot twists and Albanian childhood, Russian science-fiction and Italian soccer players, Latvian road trips and Austrian dreams - 'Best European Fiction' is a cultural and intellectual window to Europe.
