This book is on my Christmas/birthday wish list. I’ve read a few of the short stories before but I want to have read them all.
My birthday is January 2nd which is why I combine the wish lists. And no; you are never too old to wish for things.

If a writer of a prose knows enough about what he is writing about he may omit things that he knows and the reader, if the writer is writing truly enough, will have a feeling of those things as strongly as though the writer had stated them. The dignity of movement of the iceberg is due to only one-eighth of it being above water. The writer who omits things because he does not know them only makes hollow places in his writing.

A writing technique that communicates with subtext; for instance, Hemingway’s “Hills Like White Elephants” never mentions the actual theme of the story although the main characters are discussing it.
