(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 Red Pony

John Steinbeck is one of the greatest storytellers of the twentieth century. His wonderful novellas The Red Pony, Cannery
Row, Of Mice and Men, and The Pearl not only introduce readers to a fascinating, realistic cast of characters, make the
hills and seacoast of California and Mexico come to life, but also tell intriguing stories of the lives of real people.
Steinbeck’s characters are not the rich men and women of California’s boom days, but are the homeless, the migrant
workers, the poor fishermen, and the farmers. However, each of these people has a deceptively simple, but important story
to tell, a story filled with love and pain. The stories tell us not only of the lives of the poor who seek to live off the land,
but of the struggles of all people.
In many ways, Steinbeck’s The Red Pony is the most accessible of his novellas to students. It can be taught at the middle
or high school level, with differing emphasis. It is first a coming-of-age story about Jody, the son of a California rancher
of limited economic means, who learns that no one is perfect. Secondly, it is a horse story, one of the first and best of the
genre, in which Jody discovers the pain of caring for someone too much. Finally, it is a story of place, time, and family—
a tale which brings to life, with few descriptive passages, the difficult, meager existence of California ranchers of the 1930s.
The beauty and the isolation of the Gabilan mountains, the love of a father for his son, and the working of a family ranch
are all important aspects of this carefully crafted tale.
