What we’re about
If you love reading and discussing literature this is the group for you. We're just like a Book Club, but with Short Stories instead of novels! We read the short stories of some of the greatest writers in history.
Join us as we journey through a diverse range of short stories, spanning various genres and time periods. Each session offers a unique opportunity to delve into the intricacies of storytelling, character development, and thematic exploration, all within the concise and impactful format of a short story.
Our discussions are lively and engaging, providing a platform for members to share insights, interpretations, and personal reflections. Whether you're a seasoned reader or new to the world of short stories, you'll find a welcoming space to connect with fellow literature lovers.

"A Real Doll" by AM Homes
Noble Cider, 356 New Leicester Hwy, Asheville, NC, USCompliments of the season! Just in time for Christmas, the short story club is doing a story about a toy. "A Real Doll" by AM Homes is a story about a boy who develops a romantic fixation for one of his sister's Barbie dolls. First published in 1990, it's a more contemporary story than we usually read here. The unconventional style and graphic depictions of certain actions will certainly provide for a lively discussion not to be missed. I know the holidays are super busy for everyone, so we'll meet to discuss this one in the New Year. You can read the full story here with an introduction by the author at the top.
