Incredible collection of stories published in the New Yorker between 1950 and 1960, including a work by Roald Dahl that later became Danny, Champion of the World.
I just finished reading both the "New Yorker Stories from 1950 to 1960" and the newest volume of the O. Henry Short Story winners and there is no question which is a higher quality compendium -- the New Yorker. Dorothy Parker's, "I Live On Your Visits" alone would move it into a higher caliber, but when you add stories by John Cheever, R. Prawer Jhabvala, Roger Angell, Tennessee Williams and others of their ilk, it's just comparing elderly apples to crisp, juicy oranges.
