Review
'Readers, don't let the word 'small' throw you off. This year's edition of The Best Small Fictions redefines the word with writing that towers above the rest.' ----NewPages
'At their ends, these stories pray, roar, walk out, ring, hold on, go back to sleep, listen, tell, touch, talk, think, sink, hobo south, get swallowed, ask, show, discover, murmur, beckon, imagine, gaze up,bang out, hope, reach, throw, nod, dwindle, climb, grin, float into the darkness, hang on, drive off, defog, drape, rinse away, flick, blink out, grow, call, cry, reply, face the dawning light--and stop.' ----Flash Fiction Review
'The best of these fictional vignettes are like a splash of ice water in the face. . . . They create their emotional effects witha quick windup and a powerful release, often a final, lingering image.' ----Harvard Review
