OverviewNow in our third year, Fractured Lit is thrilled to bring to print a new collection of flash fiction chosen by Guest Judge Peter Orner. In this collection of resonant and entertaining flash fiction stories, readers will find characters refusing to live in the shadows of their lives, who want to take center stage for the most important moments of their lives and express something about what it means to be human in the twenty-first century. Orner, a master of domestic literary fiction, has chosen a new crop of stories that take us from coast to coast and even settings outside the United States. These stories will make you think and feel things without names, entertain, beguile, and leave the reader pondering their own lives. This collection will have you dipping into reading a story or two, taking a break, and returning for more. Each story is a dazzling gem, bringing light to the shadows of these challenging days.
