(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 Maltese Falcon    

Dashiell Hammett created a style that has
become the template of its genre to an
extent hardly matched by any other writer.
It is Sam Spade who comes to mind when
imagining a private detective, with his dry,
darkly witty and unsentimental rejoinders
in conversation (such as his response
when a beautiful woman offers him her
body: ‘I’ll think it over’); and a world of
greedy, unscrupulous crooks, matched by
a tenebrous urban atmosphere, is part of
the code, too. Hammett did not create all
these elements, but he took what could
easily have become merely pulp-fiction
conventions and made them into novels
– and one novel in particular: The Maltese
Falcon. 
Among the reasons why he could give
these conventions depth and convincing
morality was that he knew what he wastalking about. Hammett had actually
worked as a private detective, had seen
large-scale corruption at first hand,
understood hard drinking, womanising
and extra-marital affairs; but he was also
faithful and principled. The world he
created is believable because it was real.
