(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.

The Things they Carried    

The Things They Carried
First Lieutenant Jimmy Cross carried letters from a girl
named Martha, a junior at Mount Sebastian College in New
Jersey. They were not love letters, but Lieutenant Cross was
hoping, so he kept them folded in plastic at the bottom of his
rucksack. In the late afternoon, after a day's march, he would
dig his foxhole, wash his hands under a canteen, unwrap the
letters, hold them with the tips of his fingers, and spend the
last hour of light pretending. He would imagine romantic
camping trips into the White Mountains in New Hampshire.
He would sometimes taste the envelope flaps, knowing her
tongue had been there. More than anything, he wanted Martha
to love him as he loved her, but the letters were mostly chatty,
elusive on the matter of love. She was a virgin, he was almost
sure. She was an English major at Mount Sebastian, and she
wrote beautifully about her professors and roommates and
midterm exams, about her respect for Chaucer and her great
affection for Virginia Woolf. She often quoted lines of poetry;
shenever mentioned the war, except to say, Jimmy, take care of
yourself. The letters weighed 4 ounces. They were signed Love,
Martha, but Lieutenant Cross understood that Love was only a
way of signing and did not mean what he sometimes pretended
it meant. At dusk, he would carefully return the letters to his
rucksack. Slowly, a bit distracted, he would get up and move
among his men, checking the perimeter, then at full dark he
would return to his hole and watch the night and wonder if
Martha was a virgin.
