Donald Barthelme's Stories

UPDATE: I dug up some better sources, so there will be major revisions.

A list of Donald Barthelme’s stories. I will be attempting to list them chronologically according to publication date.
This list will focus mostly on the short stories Barthelme wrote as these comprised the large majority of his creative output, but will also include the few novels he wrote as well as a children’s book. Many originally published in magazines, these short stories have been released in a plethora of collections and compendiums over the years. This is an attempt to produce a definitive list of his stories. It will be an ongoing work-in-progress, especially since some of the shorts remain uncollected in currently in-print collections.

"If you go to a decent-sized bookstore, it’s likely you’ll find the Penguin Classics editions of Donald Barthelme’s 60 Stories and 40 Stories. Maybe you’ll find Farrar, Straus, and Giroux’s edition of The Dead Father. If it’s a store hip enough to be up on its Dalkey Archive titles, you might score reissues of the late novels The King and Paradise. (Often these are considered his "lesser" works, though the worst that can be said of them is that they are merely very, very good.) There’s an outside chance that you’ll find the current Scribner edition of Snow White, which gets the date of his death wrong, by two years, on the back cover.

"You will not find any short story collections in their original forms.

"You will not find a Library of America edition.

"You will not find a comprehensive, proper biography.

"There is no wide-spine, low-price Donald Barthelme Reader that you can pick up on a whim and wave around like a jacked-up Mormon."
