Synopsis "Quick Change: Tiny Tales of Transformation (in English)"
***AS FEATURED AT THE CHELTENHAM LITERATURE FESTIVAL, STROUD SHORT STORIES & ON BBC RADIO GLOUCESTERSHIRE*** Flash fiction, sudden fiction, micro-fiction, ultra short fiction - call them what you will, these twenty wry and witty short stories examine change at every stage of life, in a natural progression from birth to death. This collection is written with an admirable economy of style. Ranging from a spartan 100 words to the relative luxury of 1,000, they combine sharp observation of contemporary domestic life with gentle Britishhumor, profound affection for the social quirks of the author's native country, and the odd dark rumbling undertone. Plenty of surprises emerge along the way, from twists of magical realism to whimsical wish-fulfillment. Several of the stories have been selected for reading at public festivals and events, including "The Alchemy of Chocolate" at the Cheltenham Festival 2016, and for inclusion in National Flash Fiction Day anthologies. BONUS MATERIAL: The latest paperback edition contains two new stories that were not in the original e-book edition, but were originally published in national flash fiction anthologies.Both celebrate public libraries. This is the full list of stories in this collection: Out of the Mouths of Babes Going to Grandma's Penny for Them The Metamorphosis Peep Behind the Curtain The Art of Medicine The Alchemy of Chocolate The Impressionists Patient Virtue The Mutton and the Lamb Time Out Clean Linen Domestic Blisters Married Bliss Perfect Harmony Special Offer Autumn Leaves A Singular Life Funeral March The Comfort of Neighbours Please Remain Silent (for the Benefit of Other Library Users) Upwardly Mobile
