The Bridge of San Luis Rey

On Friday noon, July the twentieth, 1714, the finest bridge in all Peru broke
and precipitated five travellers into the gulf below. This bridge was on the highroad, between Lima and Cuzco and hundreds of persons passed over it every
day. It had been woven of osier by the Incas more than a century before and
visitors to the city were always led out to see it. It was a mere ladder of thin slats
swung out over the gorge, with handrails of dried vine. Horses and coaches and
chairs had to go down hundreds of feet below and pass over the narrow torrent
on rafts, but no one, not even the Viceroy, not even the Archbishop of Lima, had
descended with the baggage rather than cross by the famous bridge of San Luis
Rey. St. Louis of France himself protected it, by his name and by the little mud
church on the further side. The bridge seemed to be among the things that last
forever; it was unthinkable that it should break. The moment a Peruvian heard of
the accident he signed himself and made a mental calculation as to how recently
he had crossed by it and how soon he had intended crossing by it again. People
wandered about in a trance-like state, muttering; they had the hallucination of
seeing themselves falling into a gulf. Thornton Wilder - ❰ له مجموعة من الإنجازات والمؤلفات أبرزها ❞ The Bridge of San Luis Rey ❝ الناشرين : ❞ New York : Perennial Library ❝ ❱

(Stories and novels) القصص والروايات
الرواية هي سرد نثري طويل يصف شخصيات خيالية أو واقعية وأحداثاً على شكل قصة متسلسلة، كما أنها أكبر الأجناس القصصية من حيث الحجم وتعدد الشخصيات وتنوع الأحداث، وقد ظهرت في أوروبا بوصفها جنساً أدبياً مؤثراً في القرن الثامن عشر، والرواية حكاية تعتمد السرد بما فيه من وصف وحوار وصراع بين الشخصيات وما ينطوي عليه ذلك من تأزم وجدل وتغذيه الأحداث
A novel is a relatively long work of narrative fiction, normally written in prose form, and which is typically published as a book. The present English word for a long work of prose fiction derives from the Italian novella for "new", "news", or "short story of something new", itself from the Latin novella, a singular noun use of the neuter plural of novellus, diminutive of novus, meaning "new". Walter Scott made a distinction between the novel, in which (as he saw it) "events are accommodated to the ordinary train of human events and the modern state of society" and the romance, which he defined as "a fictitious narrative in prose or verse; the interest of which turns upon marvellous and uncommon incidents". However, many such romances, including the historical romances of Scott, Emily Brontë's Wuthering Heights and Herman Melville's Moby-Dick, are also frequently called novels, and Scott describes romance as a "kindred term". This sort of romance is in turn different from the genre fiction love romance or romance novel
A short story is a piece of prose fiction that typically can be read in one sitting and focuses on a self-contained incident or series of linked incidents, with the intent of evoking a "single effect" or mood.

A dictionary definition is "an invented prose narrative shorter than a novel usually dealing with a few characters and aiming at unity of effect and often concentrating on the creation of mood rather than plot."

The short story is a crafted form in its own right. Short stories make use of plot, resonance, and other dynamic components as in a novel, but typically to a lesser degree. While the short story is largely distinct from the novel or novella (a shorter novel), authors generally draw from a common pool of literary techniques.
