To Carry Her Home: Bath Flash Fiction Anthology Volume One Reviews


  • Jessica

    I have a story in here so of course it's a five-star book.

  • Zoom

    This is a collection of over 100 very short pieces of fiction written by various people. As in any collection, some pieces are stronger than others.

    These ones are my 5-star favourites:
    The Baby Came Early Screaming
    White Matter
    Last Dog
    Ringer
    I Live Near a Baked Bean Factory
    Boy Who Could Fly
    Thinking About Jessica
    Mom Woke Us Up One Night
    Bouncy Castles
    Twinkle, Twinkle
    The Paralysis of Verbs

    There's another one titled October 29th, 1:17 am, which was utterly horrifying. I can't call it a favourite, exactly, because, well, it utterly horrified me.

  • Marina Sofia

    Something for everyone in this collection of very short fiction, all winners of Bath Flash Fiction awards.
