A good selection of very short stories (1-3 pages) by different writers, some of them famous. There are some real gems among those stories.

This was okay. I just think flash fiction isn't for me - with such a small word count, it was rare that any of the stories stuck with me, even while reading! Although I did enjoy a couple, mainly Bread by Margaret Atwood, Deportation at Breakfast by Larry Fondation, and Jane by Steven Molen.

Some of the stories in this collection are very fun, some are deeper and more interesting, whilst a handful of them will make you really question what on earth you just read!

Not only are these very short stories fun to read, they're great for teaching writing. How much character development, plot, and theme can an author cram into under 1,000 words?
