Still Life and Other Stories is a collection of stories by Junzo Shono, translated into English by Wayne P. Lammers, with the translations published in 1992 by Stone Bridge Press. It was the first English translation of a work by Shono. Publishers Weekly stated that eleven of the stories collectively "form a sort of novella".[1]

Paul W. Landerman, in a review for the magazine Education About Asia, wrote that the volume has a "Zen perspective". Landerman stated that a reader may, if they read the work once, will see "postmodernist existential angst", but reading the volume more than once would reveal more "meaning and depth".[2]

Publishers Weekly describes the translation work as "excellent".[1]
