Micro Fiction An Anthology of Really Short Stories

My immediate reaction to these shoert short storiews was how a thought prcoess was told in such a small amount of words.  In Wrong Channel the reader immediately sees that through a blunder in communication this woman was not going to receive her green card through no fault of her own.  In Mockingbird, Peter expresses everyone's true but unspoken, and unpopular wish for life.  No one wants...to have to work that hard.  Land's End speaks to how not everyone has the same experience in a given place.  Certainly She will have a night of pain and not the enjoyment of a vacation.  Finally  in Waiting, She has tha same hum drum life of most of humanity, you work hard go to bed, get up, and start all over again.  All of these stories seem to have a rather bleak undertone on life.
