Minor bug fixes.

App Description

Stories are timeless. Once a week. Our forty-eight stories delivered in a year, will, in the words of Poets & Writers, “provide a vibrant picture of the scope and diversity of American writing.” The New Yorker made us a Digital Pick of the Week. LA Times called Storyville a Top 5 Literary Treat.

Storyville publishes one story each week to your iPhone and iPad. The stories are always with you. Take them on the bus, to the airport, in a queue, in bed, or wherever you long for escape.

Our mission is to introduce you to unforgettable stories written by the best literary authors in America today. Our writers have won Pulitzer prizes, The National Book Award, and just about every other literary recognition.

We publish new work from the best established houses: Grove/Atlantic, Penguin, W.W. Norton, Random House, Simon and Schuster, and HarperCollins. And we publish stories from new collections in bookstores put out by dynamic independent presses, including Graywolf Press, Soft Skull Press, Akashic Books, Archipelago Books, and others. We publish your favorite writers of today and yesterday, and the emerging voices of tomorrow, and we do it all with high style, and in the grand tradition, with a twist.

Some of the remarkable authors we have published: Anthony Doerr, Jennifer Egan, Jim Shepard, Charles Baxter, Tom Perrotta, Ben Greenman, Mavis Gallant, Joe Meno, Edna O'Brian, Emma Straub, Edwidge Danticat, Belle Boggs, Yiyun Li, Patricia Engel, and more.
