5.0 out of 5 stars The Perfect Book for the Quick Read
Over the last ten years many non-fiction how-to books have gotten shorter and more concise. "Blink: Flash Fiction Before You Can Bat an Eye" shows how this trend is affecting fiction. "Blink" is an excellent book for a busy housewife (or househusband) who doesn't have time for a long read, a business professional who wants a short read on the commuter train, or anyone...

2.0 out of 5 stars Probably skip it
I thought most of these stories were fairly boring and unimaginative. There are some good ones, however, and the book was a quick read.

1.0 out of 5 stars A great disservice to a vital form., February 8, 2008

This review is from: BLINK: Flash Fiction Before You Can Bat an Eye (Paperback)
Flash Fiction and Prose Poetry, wonderful forms when written from the heart and guts. Here, junk compiled by a painfully dull editor. Skip it. Better off getting a subscription to Opium or one of the other good magazines that highlight this type of writing. Hopefully this will save you some frustration.
