Short HOT Flashes is collection of flash fiction stories that are impossible to put down before you’ve finished them, and not just because because they are so short. David Rasch’s tiny tales are entertaining, offbeat, and surprising literary snippets about birth, love, family, friendship, school, work, altered states of consciousness, spirituality and death. Jason Cirimele’s startling and unique illustrations are exceptional companions to the stories, and they offer the additional advantage of being drawings, so – if reading 101 words feels like more than you can handle, you can just look at the pictures. (This promotional statement is 101 words long.)
