Description
Three winning flash fiction novellas from the 2017 Bath Novella-in-Flash Award demonstrate the scope and range of this increasingly popular genre.How to Make a Window Snake by Charmaine Wilkerson... creates a brilliant picture window through which we see a loving but deeply wounded family trying to survive more tragedy.A Safer Way to Fall by Joanna Campbell... stakes are high and violence becomes a reliable companion. One realises that there simply is no safe way to fall.Things I Dream About When I'm Not Sleeping by Ingrid Jendrzejewski... beautifully detailed portraits, thrusts us into a world of emotional limbo, watching the asymmetry of a couple grappling with mismatched wishes and obsessions.—Meg Pokrass, writer, poet, editor, tutor. Author of Bird Envy, Damn Sure Right, The Dog Looks Happy Upside Down and Here, Where We Live.
