Overview: The stories I finally selected could scarcely be more different from one another in style, treatment, attitude and any other aspect one might care to name, and I believe that this makes for varied and stimulating reading. I rather dislike ‘theme’ anthologies, finding that if I have just read a story about a murderous dentist, let’s say, the very last thing I want to do is to read eleven or twelve more stories about murderous dentists. To build a collection around the idea of the Nobel Prize might seem curious, but it its really no more than an excuse to assemble a group of very good stories indeed. I hope that you agree, and that Alfred Nobel—who, let us not forget, built his fortune on the invention of dynamite—would have approved.
