"The Pavilion on the Links" (1880) is a short-story by Robert Louis Stevenson.

The story was considered by Conan Doyle in 1890 as "the high-water mark of [Stevenson’s] genius" and "the first short story in the world’"[1]. Along with three other stories, it was collected in a volume entitled The New Arabian Nights in 1882, including seven linked stories originally called "Latter-day Arabian Nights" when published in a magazine in 1878. This collection is seen as the starting point for the history of the English short story by Barry Menikoff [2].
