Description:A wonderful collection of ‘flash fiction’ - stories typically of less than two pages.Including the Fish Flash Fiction prize-winning ‘Passing Over Paradise’ - described by judge Chris Stewart as a “satisfyingly artful conceit."The visit of an astronaut to a Somerset pub, an Indian waiter struggling to live up to his review, a boy who is born without a heart, a man who waits for a taxi he knows will never come, a carpenter who seeks to profit from the fall of Troy. These are just some of the eccentric and poignant characters who inhabit these short, often very short, stories.David Gaffney, a master of the genre, describes a flash story as “a nimble, nippy little thing that could turn on a sixpence and accelerate quickly away”.
