Most are short, 600 words or so, but if described as 'Flash Fiction' it might belittle the depth of them. Subjects vary from science fiction, murder, character study and
heartfelt children's stories, but all of these 32 stories will leave you with something to
think about. You will find many characters and situations from life in the modern world, told with revealing simplicity. Suggested dose is one per day, perhaps on the bus on the way to work?
