"A bouquet of wonderful wedding stories - by turns funny, passionate, bittersweet, and romantic, by famous writers from across the past two centuries. From F. Scott Fitzgerald to Lorrie Moore, and from Stephen Crane to Edwidge Danticat. EVERYMAN'S LIBRARY POCKET CLASSICS.

The

stories collected here--including such gems as Stephen Crane's ""The

Bride Comes to Yellow Sky,"" O. Henry's ""The Marry Month of May,"" F.

Scott Fitzgerald's ""The Bridal Party,"" Joy Williams's ""The Wedding,"" and

Lorrie Moore's ""Thank You For Having Me"", encompass comic wedding

mishaps, engagements broken and mended, honeymoon adventures, and scenes

both heartwarming and heartbreaking. There are glamorous weddings in

Paris and New York, and more eccentric ones in the Wild West and on a

remote island beach. There are nervous brides, forgetful grooms,

meddling guests, interrupted nuptials, second thoughts, and second

chances. Above all, there are all kinds of people - young and old, rich

and poor, divorced and widowed, with or without children - joining

together in the age-old quest for matrimonial happiness."
