(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 Road

When he woke in the woods in the dark and the cold of the night he'd reach out to touch the child
sleeping beside him. Nights dark beyond darkness and the days more gray each one than what had gone
before. Like the onset of some cold glaucoma dimming away the world. His hand rose and fell softly
with each precious breath. He pushed away the plastic tarpaulin and raised himself in the stinking robes
and blankets and looked toward the east for any light but there was none. In the dream from which he'd
wakened he had wandered in a cave where the child led him by the hand. Their light playing over the
wet flowstone walls. Like pilgrims in a fable swallowed up and lost among the inward parts of some
granitic beast. Deep stone flues where the water dripped and sang. Tolling in the silence the minutes of
the earth and the hours and the days of it and the years without cease. Until they stood in a great stone
room where lay a black and ancient lake. And on the far shore a creature that raised its dripping mouth
from the rimstone pool and stared into the light with eyes dead white and sightless as the eggs of
spiders. It swung its head low over the water as if to take the scent of what it could not see. Crouching
there pale and naked and translucent, its alabaster bones cast up in shadow on the rocks behind it. Its
bowels, its beating heart. The brain that pulsed in a dull glass bell. It swung its head from side to side
and then gave out a low moan and turned and lurched away and loped soundlessly into the dark.
