Jack Finney’s short fiction appeared in anthologies for over four decades, from the early 1950s through the late 1990s. His stories found homes in science fiction collections, horror compilations, and humor anthologies, which speaks to how hard his writing was to pin down to a single genre.

Many of these anthologies are worth tracking down for the other contributors as well as for Finney’s own stories. 50 Short Science Fiction Tales (1963) and The Arbor House Treasury of Modern Science Fiction (1980) both feature strong lineups. For readers who want to see how Jack Finney’s work sits alongside his contemporaries, these anthologies are a good place to look.
