Intrigue, vanity, compassion, epiphany, fear, and wonder, all compressed into the space of a few pages. In cultivating such moods and states, flash fiction is as equally brilliant for what it includes in print as for what it leaves to our imaginations! Each class, we will discuss one of the twentieth-century stories from the „DTV zweisprachig“ collection "22 kurze Kurzgeschichten", beginning with John Updike‘s "The Abandoned Swimming Pool" (please read the story before our first Zoom meeting) and continuing in subsequent classes with selections by Graham Greene, James Joyce, and Ernest Hemingway, among others. For your reading ease, each story can be read in the original English with a German translation on each facing page.
