I have mentioned it several times in my blog that I don’t like reading an anthology. Book with short story collection of one author has never given me any problem, in fact I really love that kind of book. One of my all time favorite books is called The Square Persimmon and it’s a book contains short stories by Atoda Takashi. However, I always find it difficult to finish a collection of short stories by many authors. I think the problem lies in the writing style. I can’t cope with different writing style in one books. I have trouble finishing Birthday anthology by Haruki Murakami and Dark House by Gary Crew (I still haven’t finished this book and I started reading it 3 years ago).
Considering my previous experience…I was a bit reluctant to start reading Flash in The Pan. It has stories from 15 authors, all with different writing style.
However…Flash in The Pan surprised me. I finished it in one day.
I think the different between anthology of flash fiction and of short story is in the length of the story. When I read short story collection, it took time to get used to one story and the writer’s writing style and just when I finally get use to it, I have to move on and try to get used to the next story and the writing style. I find that a bit tiring. It’s like engaging a long conversation with one person than suddenly someone else tried to grab my attention with another long conversation. With Flash Fiction, it’s more like having small talk with many people, this kind of small talk is not tiring at all…in fact, it’s really fun.
