In the first weeks of January 1957 Hugh (John Blagdon) Hood moved to Hartford, Connecticut, U. S. A, where he became Professor at Saint Joseph College. At the time Hood did not know that he was going ...to become one of Canada's greatest stylists and contemporary short story writers. Between January 1957 and March 1962, when he was going through a final selection o short stories for his first book, Flying a Red Kite (FRK), Hugh Hood wrote thirty-eight short stories and two novels (God Rest You Merry and Hungry Generations). The numbers show that Hood was an extremely productive writer in that period. From the thirty-eight stories he chose eleven for FRK, fourteen of them were published in subsequent collections, in various journals and short story anthologies, while thirteen of them have not been published yet.
The contemporary Canadian short story has a specific place among literary genres in Canadian literature. It culminated in the sixties of this century, when the Canadians looked to their literature ...with greater interest. Canadian short story writers started to write in a different tone, and showed special interest for new themes. After 1960 authors, such as Henry Kreisel, Norman Levine, Anne Hebert, Mavis Gallant, Ethel Wilson, Joyce Marshall, Hugh Hood, Hugh Garner, Margaret Laurence, Audrey Callahan Thomas, Mordecai Richler, and Alice Munro, refused to use the traditional plot, and showed more interest for characterisation. By using a typical Canadian setting, their stories began to reflect social events of their time. A new awareness of identity stepped forward, and above all their stories became a reflection of the diversity of life in all Canadian provinces. The contemporary Canadian short story writers began to overstep the boundaries of their imagination.

Kratki zgodbi, fenomenu 20. stoletja, je treba odmeriti enako prostora v literarni teoriji kakor drugim, navidezno bolj popularnim književnim vrstam. Kljub temu, da ni bila deležna take pozornosti in ...zanimanja med literarnimi teoretiki in kritiki kakor roman, sonet, tragedija in druge književne vrste, je v zadnjih dveh desetletjih prišlo do pravega preporoda; tako sedaj lahko upravičeno govorimo o področju literarne teorije in kritike, ki se ukvarja le z obravnavo kratke zgodbe.
