|  | Forty Stories by Donald Barthelme
These stories, some of which first appeared in the New Yorker, are compact, well-honed representatives of Barthelme at the height of his literary and imaginative powers. They include journeys such as an illustrated tour of the Tolstoy Museum, in which the great author's coat towers above visitors; a six-page story composed of a single sentence; dairy excerpts from Conversations with Goethe in which Goethe weighs in with observations like, Music is the frozen tapioca in the ice chest of history, and Actors are the Scotch weevils in the salt pork of honest effort.
