Although the two parts are now published as a single work, Don Quixote, Part Two was a sequel published ten years after the original novel. While Part One was mostly farcical, the second half is more serious and philosophical about the theme of deception. Part Two of Don Quixote explores the concept of a character understanding that he is written about: an idea much explored in the 20th century.

"The Shadow Line" - a short novel based at sea - was first published in 1916. It depicts the development of a young man upon taking a captaincy in the Orient, with the shadow line of the title representing the threshold of this development. Conrad also extensively uses irony by comparison in the work, with characters such as Captain Giles and the ship’?s "factotum" Ransome used to emphasise strengths and weaknesses of the protagonist.

Chekhov is considered to be among the greatest writers of short fiction in history. His works often asked many more questions than they answered, and he was one of the first writers to use the stream-of-consciousness technique. Considered the greatest short story writer, Anton Chekhov changed the genre itself with his spare, impressionistic depictions of Russian life and the human condition.
