Farrell's short fiction, offer remarkable insights into the lives of \u003cbr\u003e Irish Americans and other Chicagoans from 1910 to 1940. They are gems of the short fiction genre, unique, pioneering, and accomplished. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Farrell's stories offer a wonderful diversity of characters and experiences, from self-deluded, impoverished victims to portraits of the artist as a young Irish-American living on Chicago's South Side.
