Aleatory on the Radio - Paperback

by Angela Carole Brown (Author)

A lesson in brevity. Tiny starbursts. In ALEATORY ON THE RADIO, award-winning novelist Angela Carole Brown uses the exacting 100-word story form, variously known as flash fiction, postcard fiction, microfiction, drabbles, short-shorts, and bite-sized fiction, to create miniatures that manage to turn their own worlds inside out. And they do it in the span of what essentially amounts to a paragraph, where each word is scrutinized, and secrets are wrenched from the spaces between. They illustrate the ironic and sometimes cruel nature of perspective, and that we never truly know the whole story. Weaving through the vista of artists, loners, lovers, losers, dreamers, those lost, those found, this collection of microstories explores a world as baffling as it is beautiful.
