In 1928, just after he published his first novel, Morley Callaghan asked his editor, "Do you think The New Yorker would be a good magazine for my stories? They have never printed fiction before, but are going to start with that story of mine called “An Escapade.’” Through these short stories from Callaghan?whom Ernest Hemingway compared to James Joyce?readers will realize just how good a fit is was.
