Reading path

The Iceberg

Around 1910 the short story went quiet. The plots fell away, the endings stopped explaining themselves, and everything important sank below the waterline: Hemingway claimed the dignity of an iceberg comes from only one-eighth of it showing. These are the stories that taught the form to withhold, from a Dublin party where the snow begins to a library in Buenos Aires containing every possible book. Read slowly. Most of it is under the surface.
