The Collected Stories of Katherine Anne Porter compiles three books of her short fiction into one. This National Book Award and Pulitzer Prize-winning volume showcases her remarkable talent.

From the gothic Old South to revolutionary Mexico, few writers have evoked such a multitude of worlds, both exterior and interior, as powerfully as Katherine Anne Porter. This collection gathers together the best of her award-winning short stories, including “Pale Horse, Pale Rider,” where a young woman lies in a fever during the 1918 influenza epidemic, her childhood memories mingling with fears for her boyfriend on his way to war, and “Noon Wine,” a haunting story of tragedy and scandal on a small dairy farm in Texas.

This volume includes the collections *Flowering Judas*, *Pale Horse, Pale Rider*, and *The Leaning Tower*, as well as four stories not available elsewhere in book form.
