Katherine Anne Porter's recent novel Ship of Fools was an enormous popular and critical success. But it is for her short stories that she is chiefly known and admired as one of America's most distinguished writers. Robert Penn Warren, in the Kenyon Review, said, "Many of her stories are unsurpassed in modern fiction."

Now for the first time, her three collections of stories—Flowering Judas, Pale Horse, Pale Rider, and The Leaning Tower,— are available in one volume. This edition also includes four stories that have not previously been published in book form—"Virgin Violeta," "The Martyr," "Holiday," and "The Fig Tree."
