Reseña del editor

Fiction. Poetry. Anthology. This second installment of THE BEST SMALL FICTIONS, edited by series editor Tara L.

Forty-five acclaimed and emerging writers--including Alberto Chimal, Toh EnJoe, Kathy Fish, Amelia Gray, Etgar Keret, R. O. Kwon, and Eliel Lucero--offer readers "some of the brightest concise writing available today" (NewPages). With spotlights on Texture Press and author Megan Giddings, the acclaimed new series, with its "finger on the pulse," succeeds in its aim to make something big from many small things.
