An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge :

An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge by Ambrose Bierce is a gripping short story that masterfully blends psychological suspense with the brutal realities of war. Set during the American Civil War, the narrative follows Peyton Farquhar, a Southern planter condemned to hang from a railroad bridge for attempting to sabotage Union forces. As the noose tightens, Farquhar experiences a vivid and surreal escape that blurs the line between illusion and reality. Bierce’s haunting prose and twist ending make this tale a classic of American literature, renowned for its exploration of time, perception, and the cruel ironies of fate.
