What is Brief Encounters : a Collection of Contemporary Nonfiction about?
## Brief Encounters: A Collection of Contemporary Nonfiction by Judith Kitchen, Dinah Lenney ebook, 304 pages Published November 9th 2015 The late Judith Kitchen, editor of the perennially popular anthologies __Short Takes, In Short__, and __In Brief,__ was greatly influential in recognizing and establishing flash creative nonfiction as a form in its own right. In __Brief Encounters__, she and writer/editor/actor Dinah Lenney expand this vibrant field with nearly eighty new selections: shorts—as these sharply focused pieces have come to be known— representing an impressive range of voices, perspectives, sensibilities, and forms. __Brief Encounters__ features the work of the emerging and the established—including Stuart Dybek, Roxanne Gay, Eduardo Galeano, Leslie Jamison, and Julian Barnes—arranged by theme to explore the human condition in ways intimate, idiosyncratic, funny, sad, provocative, lyrical, unflinching. From the rant to the rave, the meditation to the polemic, the confession to the valediction, this collection of shorts—this celebration of true and vivid prose—will enlarge your world.
