Horses and Men: Tales, long and short, from our American life

In "Horses and Men: Tales, long and short, from our American life," Sherwood Anderson intricately weaves a tapestry of American experiences through brief yet profound narratives. His literary style evokes both realism and impressionism, capturing the subtleties of rural life and the complexities of human emotion.
