Ambrose Bierce: The Devil's Dictionary, Tales, & Memoirs (Loa #219): In the Midst of Life (Tales of Soldiers and Civilians) / Can Such Things Be? / Th by Ambrose Bierce
4.0
Some of the greatest short stories imaginable, like combining the thrill of Lovecraft with the wit of O. Henry.
The Devil's Dictionary offers a cynical, crude, and often hilarious view of society, politics, and religion. Dr. Johnson introduced bias to dictionaries, but Bierce perfected the dictionary as a form of satire.
