The essay cites Edward O Briens list of 133 stories deemed worthy of republication and argues the American short story suffers from overstructure and self consciousness. It calls for more organic, vital fiction and criticizes reliance on machinery over human insight. It notes D H Lawrence and others sharing similar views on artistic liberty versus formal constraint.
