In Brevity, David Galef provides a guide to writing flash fiction, from tips on technique to samples by canonical and contemporary authors to provocative prompts that inspire powerful stories in a little space. Galef traces the genre back to its varied origins, from the short-short to nanofiction, with examples that include vignettes, prose poems, character sketches, fables, lists, twist stories, surrealism, and metafiction. The authors range from the famous, such as Colette and Borges, to today's voices, like Roxane Gay and Bruce Holland Rogers. A writer and longtime creative writing teacher, Galef also shows how flash fiction skills translate to other types of writing. Brevity is an indispensable resource for anyone working in this increasingly popular form. For more information, see davidgalef.com/brevity.

Although L.M. Montgomery (1874-1942) is best remembered for the twenty-two book-length works of fiction that she published in her lifetime, from Anne of Green Gables (1908) to Anne of Ingleside (1939), she also contributed some five hundred short stories and serials to a wide range of North American and British periodicals from 1895 to 1940. While most of these stories demonstrate her ability to produce material that would fit the mainstream periodical fiction market as it evolved across almost half a century, many of them also contain early incarnations of characters, storylines, conversations, and settings that she would rework for inclusion in her novels and collections of linked short stories.In Twice upon a Time, the third volume in The L.M. Montgomery Library, Benjamin Lefebvre collects and discusses over two dozen stories from across Montgomery's career as a short fiction writer, many of them available in book form for the first time. The volume offers a rare glimpse into Montgomery's creative process in adapting her periodical work for her books, which continue to fascinate readers all over the world.

Aborda, de manera conjunta, el estudio de la representación autorial en la narrativa, el audiovisual y el teatro hispánico partiendo de la hipótesis de que la autoficción responde a una tendencia general en el arte contemporáneo en la que, aun asumiendo la imposibilidad de un referente estable, los creadores siguen afanándose en plasmar sus identidades, si bien de forma precaria y fragmentaria.

Alla centralità del tema amoroso nella narrativa breve non di rado si connette o si affianca la rappresentazione dell’irrazionalità e della follia, in diversi gradi, forme e manifestazioni: dal tragico al comico, dal drammatico al grottesco, dal serio e grave al parodico e irridente. A tali tematiche, dal Medioevo a Cervantes, e alle loro differenti declinazioni – cui si oppongono specularmente, con maggiore o minore frequenza e intensità, i richiami a principi d’ordine, ragione e misura – sono dedicati i saggi di questo volume, che trae origine dal confronto e dialogo di un gruppo di studiosi di più ambiti disciplinari: Letteratura italiana (Johannes Bartuschat, Anna Maria Cabrini, Sandra Carapezza, Claude Cazalé Bérard, Cristina Zampese); Filologia romanza (Beatrice Barbiellini Amidei, Luca Sacchi); Letteratura spagnola (Antonio Gargano, Maria Rosso); Linguistica italiana (Giuseppe Polimeni).

Half a century into the digital era, the profound impact of information technology on intellectual and cultural life is universally acknowledged but still poorly understood. The sheer complexity of the technology coupled with the rapid pace of change makes it increasingly difficult to establish common ground and to promote thoughtful discussion. Responding to this challenge, Switching Codes brings together leading American and European scholars, scientists, and artists-including Charles Bernstein, Ian Foster, Bruno Latour, Alan Liu, and Richard Powers-to consider

This collection of Russian short stories from the 21st century includes works by famous writers and young talents alike, representing a diversity of generational, gender, ethnic and national identities. Their authors live not only in Russia, but also in Europe and the US. Short stories in this volume display a vast spectrum of subgenres, from grotesque absurdist stories to lyrical essays, from realistic narratives to fantastic parables. Taken together, they display rich and complex cultural and intellectual reality of contemporary Russia, in which political, social, and ethnic conflicts of today coexist with themes and characters resonating with classical literature, albeit invariably twisted and transformed in an unpredictable way. Most of texts in this volume appear in English for the first time. 21 may be useful for college courses but will also provide exciting reading for anyone interested in contemporary Russia.
