The Best British Short Stories of 1922 is a collection of short stories edited by Edward J. O'Brien. The book features a selection of the best short stories written by British authors in the year 1922.

The book provides an insight into the literary trends and styles of the time and offers a glimpse into the social and cultural issues of the era. The stories are written in a captivating and engaging style that will keep readers entertained and engrossed from start to finish. Overall, The Best British Short Stories of 1922 is a must-read for anyone interested in British literature and the history of short stories.Looking back on it from this distance of time--it began in the early and ended in the middle eighties--I see the charm of ingenuous youth stamped on the episode, the touching glamour of limitless faith and expectation. We were, the whole little band of us, so deliciously self-sufficient, so magnificently critical of established reputations in contemporary letters and art. We sniffed and snorted, noses in air, at popular idols, while ourselves weighted down with a cargo of guileless enthusiasm only asking opportunity to dump itself at an idol's feet.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
