The anthology of short stories has contributed to the making of the short story in Jordan in the late twentieth century and early twenty first century. Hence, this study aims ed to trace the extent to which intertextuality is present in contemporary Jordanian short stories through this anthology. Intertextuality in Jordanian short story covers several dimensions, most notably, social, economic and rational. It played a significant role in producing meaning and relating it to a specific perspective.
