Modern Short Story

Modem short stories deal with ordinary people. The plots and settings may vary considerably. Some stories are set in the past or the present, while others are set in the future. The length of this form of literature still limits the plot and the setting. Modem writers tend to focus more on character development. Often readers are left to infer from clues the qualities of the characters or setting. Many short stories offer a moral lesson or philosophical statement about humans and the human experience.
