The purpose of reading a short story is the same as for a long story: to learn, to be entertained or enlightened, and to simply appreciate a work of literature for its own sake. Short stories are just that: short stories. Not every idea lends itself to a full-length novel, and many writers of novels, for example, Frederick Forsyth, enjoy penning the occasional short story or publishing a collection of short stories as an alternative to a single story told over 300 pages.
