A quick catharsis 17. Juli 2000
Format:Hörkassette
Looking for a good time and a fast turnover? Then, this is the book for you! The variety and number of stories within the covers will boggle your mind. The intensity and usage of the words are a great study for anyone who admires efficiency and quality. As a teacher of intellectually gifted high school English students, the book provides a great trigger for them to write and to attempt to submit works for publication. "Gertrude's Soliloquy" is especially pertinent after reading "Hamlet". Being from New Orleans, makes "Red Beans Anne Rice" amusing, but my personal favorite is "And the Horse They Rode On" because it makes creative and skillful use of an age old teaching tool, the fill-in-the-blank! There will surely be something to grab everyone in this clever idea of a book.

a lot in a few words 15. Mai 2000
Von Ein Kunde
Format:Taschenbuch
Firstly 55 words is not very many (by the end of this sentence it'll be 19 already!). Secondly these are not just extended haiku or stories lacking in plot they have a beginning, a plot, a middle and an end. I really enjoyed them, there was huge variety (these stories are the best of a vast quantity submitted to a newspaper) and the perspectives they offered were very varied. I'd give 5 stars except for the fact that some of the 'twists in the tale' became a little tedious after a while. You could pick up this book and read a couple, put it down, go back to it etc it being a book of short stories however they are so short and so compelling that I doubt if you'll be able to. For anyone who's read 'Anthropology' and has doubts about such a limited number of words have faith this is worth it. For anyone who's a haiku nut and thinks this could be US haiku it's not but read it anyway it's great fun.

Wonderful Concept! 5. November 2001
Von Jodi - Veröffentlicht auf Amazon.com
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
It's hard to imagine that a good story could be written with 55 words or less, but the fact is that it is, indeed, possible. These are not essays or poems, they are real stories with all of the following: a setting, at least one character, a conflict, and a resolution. It's incredible to read how creative some people can be with such a restriction on the number of words that are allowed in these stories. Well worth the read! At the end of the book, the publishers challenge the readers to write their own 55 word story and submit it for publication in their next book (which was how this book came about...from a challenge to the readers of the first "55" book!) The rules for this contest are also included (what constitutes a word, where to send your story, etc) This is a wickedly fun book (I say "wickedly fun" since so many of the stories deal with a twisted murder plot or some strange love relationship) that I highly recommend!!

Wicked good! 2. Januar 2004
Von ellafan - Veröffentlicht auf Amazon.com
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
This sweet little collection of very humorous,sad, and horrific(and that is in just one story)short stories is a lot of fun to read.Just like pistachio nuts...can't stop at one...so I read it all in one sitting...which isn't difficult of course!I'm buying the rest in the series today.

Remember: This is no huge novel filled with profound thoughts on every page. This is a little tiny book,filled with profound thoughts on every page!So chill out and accept it for what it is: A fun read...most of the time...and keep an eye out for sadness just around the corner.
