Synopsis

Short, short stories, sometimes known as flash fiction or microfictions, are one of the trickiest forms to write. Create a resonant world in fewer than 300 words? Not so easy! In this collection of 100 stories, a range of New Zealand writers, both well known and emerging, deliver emotionally charged stories that punch well above their weight and length.

And there’s more! Each of the stories has been translated into te reo Māori (and some are written in te reo and translated into English) by some of this country’s most experienced translators, making this book a valuable contributor to our literary landscape that rewards repeated readings.
