Produktbeschreibung

How we worship the god of short things: News in brief, SMSs, 30-second TikTok videos. Here, in this ground-breaking collection of flash fiction and comics from Asia, you'll find stories crushed between your palms, squeezed into a micro-narrative that's tight and sweet. Brevity is not a sin, but storytelling in its most elemental form, to suggest, tease and worm its way into your imagination.
