This article presents information about the book "Better Think Twice About It and Twelve Other Stories," by Luigi Pirandello and translated by Arthur Mayne and Henrie Mayne. This is by far the most readable and charming of the many Pirandello volumes. It is a side of Pirandello that is too seldom stressed and his popularity among English readers should gain immensely from it. Many subjects have been treated in dramatic form. "The Other Son" and the inimitably sportive "The Jar" figure among the one-act plays. "The Quick and the Dead" is one of the best short stories ever written.
