Can you recommend some life like short stories?
There is 'The Lottery' by Shirley Jackson. It presents a seemingly ordinary small town where every year they have a lottery. But as the story unfolds, it turns out to be a very dark and disturbing ritual. This story reflects on human nature, traditions, and the mob mentality in a very life like way. Also, Raymond Carver's short stories, like 'Cathedral', often deal with the small, everyday lives of ordinary people and their internal struggles.
Well, 'To Build a Fire' by Jack London is a life like short story. It depicts a man's struggle against the harsh cold in the Yukon. His ignorance of nature's power and his overconfidence gradually lead him to a desperate situation. Also, 'Hills Like White Elephants' by Ernest Hemingway is a good example. It's a short but very profound story about a couple's relationship and a difficult decision they are facing, with very little direct dialogue about the real issue.
Sure. 'The Gift of the Magi' by O. Henry is a great one. It tells the story of a young couple who are very poor but deeply in love. They each sacrifice their most precious possession to buy a gift for the other. Another is 'The Necklace' by Guy de Maupassant. It shows how a woman's vanity leads her into a cycle of debt and hard work. And 'A Very Old Man with Enormous Wings' by Gabriel García Márquez is also a fascinating life like short story, which has elements of the magical and the real.
