What are some good short stories without sexual content?

'Berenice' by Edgar Allan Poe can be read as having lesbian - coded subtext. While it's not an overtly lesbian - themed story in the modern sense, it has undertones of a deep, perhaps unrequited, relationship between two women. It's more about the psychological connection and the mystery surrounding their relationship.

Ray Bradbury's 'All Summer in a Day' is also a wonderful short story. It's set on Venus where it rains constantly except for one day every seven years. The story explores themes of envy, bullying and the power of hope among children.

Another short story is about a young boy who dreamed of becoming an astronaut. He studied hard in school, especially in science and math, and finally got the chance to participate in a space - related project for students. This story is inspiring.

Yes, there are many. For example, short adventure stories. A young boy finds a mysterious map in his attic and embarks on a journey to find a hidden treasure. Along the way, he meets interesting characters and overcomes various challenges.

Another great Telugu short story theme is about family values. There could be a story where a young boy is separated from his family during a festival. He gets lost in the big city. But the kindness of strangers and his own determination lead him back home. This story emphasizes the importance of family bonds and how people will go to great lengths to be reunited with their loved ones.

The story of Mahatma Gandhi's non - violent struggle for India's independence is an inspiring one. His use of peaceful protests and civil disobedience against the British rule changed the course of Indian history.

Bram Stoker's 'Dracula' is a great one. It focuses on the horror and mystery of the vampire, his powers, and the attempts to stop him. Another is Anne Rice's 'Interview with the Vampire' which, while it has complex relationships, is not centered around sexual content but rather the vampire's existence and their emotional turmoil. Also, 'The Vampire Diaries' books (not just the TV show) have a lot of drama, action, and exploration of the vampire world without relying on sexual content to drive the story.

One great photography story is about Ansel Adams. His black - and - white landscape photographs of the American West are iconic. He dedicated his life to capturing the grandeur of nature, using his unique zone system to achieve perfect exposure and tonal range in his prints.

There's also 'A Christmas Carol' by Charles Dickens. While not a typical 'ghost' story in the horror sense, it features ghosts that visit Ebenezer Scrooge to change his ways. It's a heartwarming and moral - filled story that shows how the supernatural can be used to teach important lessons.

One great UK story is 'Alice's Adventures in Wonderland' by Lewis Carroll. It takes readers on a fantastical journey with Alice as she falls down a rabbit hole into a world full of strange creatures and curious happenings. Another is the story of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table, which is filled with tales of chivalry, magic, and heroism. And the works of Jane Austen, like 'Pride and Prejudice', offer wonderful insights into the social life and relationships in the UK during the 19th century.
