Well, 'The Canterbury Tales' is a top pick for best frame story short stories. The frame of the pilgrimage provides a context for all the different characters to share their unique stories, which range from moral tales to comical ones. Then there's 'One Thousand and One Nights'. The fact that Scheherazade has to keep coming up with new stories to stay alive makes for a really engaging frame. Each story within it is like a little jewel, full of adventure, love, and mystery. And 'The Decameron' is also notable. The ten narrators and their ten days of storytelling create a complex and interesting frame for a whole bunch of different short stories.
One of the best frame story short stories is 'The Canterbury Tales' by Geoffrey Chaucer. It has a group of pilgrims each telling their own stories within the overarching journey framework. Another great one is 'One Thousand and One Nights'. The frame of Scheherazade telling stories to the king each night to avoid execution holds a collection of diverse and fascinating tales. Also, 'The Decameron' by Giovanni Boccaccio is a wonderful frame story. It features ten young people telling stories while they are in isolation during the plague.
First, look for a strong overarching narrative that ties the individual stories together. For example, in 'The Canterbury Tales', the pilgrimage is that unifying factor. Second, check if the stories within the frame are diverse yet complementary. In 'One Thousand and One Nights', the stories vary greatly in theme and mood. Also, the depth of the characters in the frame can be a sign. In 'The Decameron', the ten young people have their own personalities which add to the overall charm of the frame story.
Well, the story of Fatal Frame: Maiden of Black Water has its own charm. The mystery around the mountain village and the cursed spring. The main character, Yuri Kozukata, has to face her own past and the terrifying apparitions. It combines Japanese folklore and horror elements really well, which makes it a great Fatal Frame story.
Janet Frame's short stories are often deeply introspective. They explore complex human emotions and the human condition. For example, her use of vivid imagery helps to bring out the inner turmoil of her characters. Her stories might be set in ordinary settings, but the characters' experiences are far from ordinary.
Another great frame novel is 'The Decameron' by Giovanni Boccaccio. In this work, a group of young people flee the plague - stricken city and while in seclusion, they take turns telling stories. This frame of the group in isolation provides a context for all the individual tales they share.

Author: The Whitest Crow The following is a detailed introduction of these novels: 1."Book of Troubled Times":"Book of Troubled Times" is a novel with a martial arts theme. The author, Ji Cha, uses a unique harem writing style to show us a world full of chivalry and affection. The story began with the protagonist, a college student, repeatedly falling into the same strange dream. In order to solve the mystery of this dream, he went to a supernatural divination shop and accidentally transmigrated to a village that was about to be destroyed. In this strange world, the protagonist was forced to join the Demon Sect and began his journey of survival. The plot of this novel was tightly paced, and the plot was full of ups and downs, making it difficult for people to stop. The author, Ji Cha, was very good at portraying the characters. Whether it was the wise and decisive male lead or the female leads, each character had a vivid personality and left a deep impression on people. Especially the interaction with the beauty, the author described it very vividly and interestingly. The story incorporated some humorous elements, as well as details that imperceptibly made the world more real, allowing the protagonist to walk further in his heart. The setting of this novel was very interesting, and the description of the dungeon was also very good. It was just that the protagonist's cheat was a little too big, and he almost crushed all the way through, which might make some readers feel a little dull. But overall,"Book of Troubled Times" was a novel that was worth reading, especially for those readers who liked Wuxia. This book would definitely bring a different reading experience. 2."Spirit Realm Walker": A new novel from the newspaper seller. Congratulations on creating a record of 200,000 collections on the first day. The introduction and the first few chapters feel pretty good. Fattening up. 3.<<The Tang's Table>> The people of the world and the affairs of the world are just the dishes on the table of the Tang people. Although the original ingredients had the original flavor of food, Yun Chu still believed that the most delicious food still needed to be divided, cooked, and handled. The food that was finally served on the table was the food that most suited the stomach of the Tang people. Steaming, braising, stir-frying, stewing... There were many cooking methods in the kitchen. Whether it was Goguryeo, the Turks, Tubo, Tuyuhun, Xue Yantuo, Tiele…or even whales, tigers, sharks, and hungry wolves, the Great Tang was a furnace that could cook them all into peerless delicacies… In addition to Li Zhi, Wu Wei, Zhangsun Wuji, Chu Suiliang, Li Ji, Cheng Yaojin, and other peerless seasonings, there would always be one thing that you would never forget, regardless of color, fragrance, or taste. Yun Chu hoped that she would definitely have a seat at such a luxurious banquet! Now, the delicious food had been cooked. Yun Chu laid out the napkin, picked up the deer knife, and closed her eyes. She was ready to enjoy an unprecedented feast to satisfy her hungry stomach. 4."King of Beasts": A new book with a light spring flowing. It's still a familiar book about beasts. 5."Fairy, Please Listen to My Explanation": This book is about the protagonist transmigrating into a game called "Cangyuan." However, unlike other novels, the protagonist's identity in the game after transmigrating is not the protagonist. He carefully explored the surrounding world. The butterfly flapped its wings, and the situation became confusing. At the beginning, he was kidnapped and threatened. His understanding of the original plot and his own wisdom allowed him to survive successfully. He used this as a stepping stone to change his situation. He took every step in this new world and worked hard to change the current situation. The plot of this book was beautifully arranged. The foreshadowing of the previous chapters was echoed in the later chapters through dialogue or other forms. The unexpected reversal of the plot was heart-wrenching. The main character and supporting characters were shining with wisdom, and they were playing chess step by step. Everything was displayed in front of me under the author's excellent writing. If you want to read an excellent novel, I will definitely recommend this one. National Forensics: Interesting 7."Wait, Heroine" Author: Guan Guan (Lv.5) Tagged: Fantasy, Oriental Fantasy connecting to Total Word Count:135.04w True number of fans: 16.410,000 Total Collection:41.27w Total recommendation:49.64w [Alliance Leader Count:57] First Order:20033 "Heroine, wait a moment. Do you know who I am?" "I know. He's the empress's favorite minister, the lover of the rebel leader, and the young master of a famous sect in the pugilistic world. You're the one I'm going to cut!" 8."Mantang Colorful Scenery": Rating: AAAAA The prosperous Chang 'an City was full of undercurrents. Under the rule of the court, people were arrogant and extravagant, and they fought for power endlessly. The country was in turmoil, the Hu people rebelled, and human lives were like grass. This was the best moment for the Great Tang, and also the worst moment… 9."Hidden Dead Corner": Although there was an event support factor, an initial order of 40,000 yuan was really too much. The rhythm was slow, and the protagonist could absorb different flowers to get different enhancements. The protagonist's IQ was online, but it did not drop. It's a strange style of mech writing. I think it's very good! Author: Get Lost Tagged: sci-fi futuristic world [Status: Series] [First order: 40041 (available on May 16, 2023)] Have you heard of it? If you turned on the music player in the dead of the night, put on headphones, and hid under the blanket to cover your head, listening to the single repeatedly. If you were unlucky and opened your eyes again, you would no longer be lying on your own bed, but would enter a strange space that was completely isolated from reality. That space…On the surface, it looked like the places we usually see, such as our bedroom, the living room, the underground garage, the bathroom, the basketball court, the construction site, etc. However, if you looked carefully, you would realize that it was different…Everything was different. 10: Final Divine Duty: Awesome Writing, Good Rhythm It's been a good journey, and I've learned the true teachings of get lost Not inferior to a Gokudo Devil 11."Beyond Time": The ears have finally returned to the method of seeking the devil. The main character was decisive in killing and looked like me. This was the best point. "This Game Is Too Real":"This Game Is Too Real" was a wasteland style novel. With the game as the background, it told the adventure story of a group of players playing games to save the world. The wasteland style of this book was very delicate, and the pace of the plot was very tight. It made people look forward to the subsequent developments. The author, Chen Xing LL, had a very high level of writing. His works did not start high and end low, which was very surprising. Every character in the story had their own story line, and the overall atmosphere was easy to heal. It was very worth recommending. Even though the book was not finished yet, the quality of the book seemed to be very good. The story did not collapse, and it became more and more interesting. Compared to the apocalyptic game novels I had read, this book brought a new experience to my taste. A large number of images depicted idiotic players and natives struggling to survive. The group characters were drawn very delicately. Overall, this book is worth reading, and I look forward to its future development. 13:"Red Heart Sky Patrol": A new god ascended the throne. This book will definitely become a god! Excellent! I strongly recommend you to enter the pit. Take your time and read the third volume patiently. I guarantee you won't be disappointed. ----------------- 2021.2.20 The first evaluation, the second. It's a good book recommended after reading the second chapter. The name is a little old-fashioned. ----------------- 2021.3.19 The second evaluation, a. After reading the first volume, he strongly recommended it again. It was an absolute immortal herb. His writing style was first-class, and his ability to create characters was at the peak. He could clearly remember the names and personalities of almost every character who appeared. The disadvantages were that part of the plot was a little old-fashioned, the protagonist's presence was weak, and the character's rate of death was a little high… ----------------- 2021.3.26 Three comments, first up. After reading the third volume, all the flaws in the early stages were swept away. He could be sure that as long as the ending was not bad and there was no eunuch, it would definitely be a divine work. ----------------- 2021.4.15 Four comments, first class. He had caught up with the latest progress, the Yellow River Meeting Plot. Let's not talk about the advantages, let's talk about the disadvantages. First, although the background was grand, it lacked novelty and the plot was a little old-fashioned. Fortunately, the author's writing was strong enough to write the old-fashioned plot. Second, compared to the many supporting characters with distinct personalities, the protagonist's creation was not outstanding enough. He was clearly a peerless genius. However, it didn't always make people feel that it was brilliant. It could also be because the supporting characters were too successful and took away too much of the excitement. Thirdly, the plot development was slow. There were countless holes buried and new plots kept being created. He only hoped that the author had enough professional ethics and didn't let the ending be a mess or a eunuch. He would fill in all the holes dug in the beginning. In short, it was an excellent book. Moreover, it had a large amount of content. It was recommended to enter the pit. ------------------ 2021.5.4 Five comments, no A true divine work would be considered a god-level work, and the first evaluation would be above armor. The author's pen strength was too strong, and it had the style of ancient times. Writing a web novel was a blow to his reputation. As long as it didn't end badly, there was no reason for it not to become a masterpiece. ------------------ 2021.12.29 Recently, the quality of the novel had declined. The author wanted to express too many things and was overly concerned about the readers 'opinions of the characters. It seemed like they had reached a bottleneck in the transition from traditional novel authors to web novel authors. Let's watch for a while. Ring of Fate: The Secret World Part 2 In the year 1368, at the end of July, Crimson would descend from the sky. His heart was surging, his imagination was infinite, and he waved his hand against the wind. The young man was undefeated and hot-blooded! 15:"State Preceptor of Ming Dynasty": "The Great Ming State Teacher" is a masterpiece and one of the founders of the famous teacher Friends who are more bored or don't understand books such as Political Economics, History, Philosophy, and Society would recommend this book. This year's Best Bright Thru Story He had seen too many emperors of the Ming Dynasty who had transmigrated into the Ming Dynasty, and the second generation of the Duke. In the end, the schemes they played were only for the benefit of their own family. The reason why this book is the best in my heart is not because of the plot or the style of writing. Even the explosive points of the book weren't the most important. The most important thing was that he could analyze historical problems from the simplest logic. After all, there were many articles about returning to history and becoming a reclusive big shot. However, there were fewer articles that could write anything. After all, to write well, one needed to look up a lot of information. This book was already very well written. Moreover, it was no longer about gunpowder, paper, cement, or glass. It was a real science book. Have you ever seen a transmigrator who used modern theories to change the world? The author of 'The Great Ming State Preceptor' is really amazing. There was no fighting or killing in this book. There was no trickery or trickery. What was there was only a weapon of thought that shocked the world and readers. It was hard to imagine that the political and economic content that could not be learned in school, even the philosophical content, could be turned into words like a stream of spring water by the author's pen, silently nourishing things. Perhaps this was the Ming Dynasty's version of "The Age of Awakening." There were no problems with the world setting. The protagonist had a brain too, so there were no poison points. The plot was written in a daily manner. It did not abuse the main character. The main character's IQ was on the line. He was not too crazy or too arrogant. There was no problem with his writing. There were no poison points at the moment, so it would not make people act out. 16."Ascending on the Right Day": The beginning is the scene of the snake hunter saying his name. The second chapter has a small climax. It's a rare orthodox Xianxia novel. Platinum author, Otaku Pig's new work 17:"Who's in Love After Being Reborn?" At the beginning, I thought he was a career maniac and ran to the richest man in the world. Who knew that after a few chapters, the female lead would be thrown out? Her career was just a small part of her background. But it was really sweet. 18:"Deep Sea Ember": Rating Index:️️️️️ The suspense and atmosphere of the book were extremely accurate. There were some passages that made one's hair stand on end. The plot was also very well connected. At the same time, there were some fantasy elements. Overall, it was a rare divine book. "Cultivation in the Chaos of the Demonic Martial World" was a very special book. The author's imagination was unrestrained, the plot was novel and attractive, and the sense of immersion was very strong. The author's description made people feel as if they were in it, and they couldn't help but be moved. The plot in the book was full of ups and downs, making the readers unable to stop. The author's writing was smooth and without losing its meaning, making it very enjoyable to read. There were no negative points in this book and it was very refreshing to read. It was a good book that was worth recommending. "Who told him to cultivate!" The cultivation system was the familiar classic system of Qi Cultivation, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, and Nascent Soul. The cultivation aptitude was also the common five elements spirit root, which could easily understand the realm and environment. However, the author also wrote some of his own things, such as 'fake' single spiritual root 'x' real 'single spiritual root',' pure Yang spiritual root, and the protagonist's sword spirit root, etc. (Although she was a little girl who was afraid of heights and couldn't ride a sword, it was quite common for female channel members to be afraid of heights.) The protagonist went to a cultivation sect near his home to try his luck. On the way, he got a ride on a carriage and met a woman. The three of them discussed how to cheat, but the woman was their invigilator. Fortunately, he bought the wrong answer and did not deal with them. (I think it has something to do with their talent.) Then, they took part in the test and passed the test in an unusual way. The protagonist's journey of cultivation had officially begun. In addition, the author really liked to twist the situation. The effect was always unexpected and interesting. It was easy to read the daily cultivation literature, and it was very enjoyable to read. There were other books with similar styles, such as Pei Bubao's "I Can't Be a Sword God" and "Please Slay the Demon, Young Master." (P.S. There are still a hundred chapters left before "Please Slay the Demon, Young Master" is finished. The book farming and book famine are worth killing.) You can read these novels on Qidian Chinese Network.
