Perhaps it is fashionable to assemble words into nonsensical sequences and call them stories, but these are not stories. These are wackdoodle mumblings. I am beyond tired with this "I will disturb you with my bizarre thoughts" crap.
Yes, I longed for this book and here it is! I am so glad of it. All the stories, in one sturdy book. I’ve been reading Williams for many years now and it has always seemed to me that they are best read this way, in order. The early stories give a reader a little more to go on, then more and more one is left stranded in midair. It is a delight one learns, I think. The recent stories seem to circle around a bit, provide a little ground again -- but never much!If you are new to Williams, I suggest you read a half dozen of the tiny stories themselves, rather than rely on anyone’s opinion, including mine. I adore to read these stories, to try to read them and fail, to lose my balance again and again. It’s an entirely different experience of reading than most people are accustomed to and it’s an experience I crave. I like very much to hang out in the strange atmosphere the stories create, to let my sensitivity to language be tuned by them.But I have no idea how this translates, in terms of so-called “normal peopleâ€! I am admittedly the sort of person who reads Gertrude Stein for fun. I enjoy difficulty, at least in prose. To me, the tiny size of the stories is so inviting. I love to practice paying attention in this way. Or, as I like to joke, If everything is entirely straightforward, how can I be distracted from the wretched condition of my life? I am, in short, a tortured soul. As such, I adore these stories.(If you are contemplating the splurge of purchasing a hardcover, for me a very rare occurrence, I note happily that this is an exceptionally beautiful book. It is just as it should be. The typeface, cover, the sense of space, endpages. The interior of the book was done by Janine Agro, of Soho Press. I’ve never mentioned a book designer in a review before -- but this is utterly beautiful work, done by someone who totally understood that it was crucial how the stories appeared on the page. Bravo.)
I read (in areview i the LA Times) of Diane Williams’s most recent collection of flash fictions (Fine, Fine, Fine, Fine) that they are “gripping.†I did not find any of the stories from the collection of more than 300 “gripping.†I could also argue with Ben Marcus’s introduction, which is longer than any of the “stories†—not funny, not entertaining, not even manic—and too short even to qualify as the other pole of “bipolar.†Those I sampled are long enough for me to be bored by them (singularly and collectively). I don’t think there is any there there. Apparently some other writers do. Perhaps they are better at “reading in.†Though I hoped to like them — was not predisposed to reject them — I found even holding up the 2.2 pounds of the book tiring, and the often odd syntax even more so. Even the titles of the "stories" made me yawn, though they also tend to be very shorts, often a single word.
Two confessions: I had never heard of Diane Williams before reading about this book AND I've never been a big fan of "experimental" fiction.But this sounded too intriguing to ignore, so I didn't... ignore itAnd I'm glad: Ms Williams is an invigorating writer and her output, stories that may or may not be linked and which, individually, do not take up more than two pages (many, most,1 page... some 1 paragraph) are in the main fascinatingIt's nor as singular an achievement as Lake Effect Days, but there's a LOT more of it
The Collected Stories of Diane Williams covers this author's interesting, quirky, shocking, incomprehensible, and remarkable output from 1990 to present. In this nearly 800 page collection, there are 300+ short stories--most 1-2 pages in length--and three novellas, only one of which seems novella, the other two more like longer stories.I thought many of these stories were pure nonsense, but I found quite a few to be remarkable--the author managed to provide a powerful punch, emotion, or jolt with a remarkable dearth of words. I found the longer stories (three or more pages) to be more entertaining than the shorter ones, and generally less bizarre. Many of these stories are in the 5-star range based on quality of the writing and impact. But many are also 1-star due to the lack of what I'd call a story--many read like snippets flung on paper.Overall, it's an interesting, frustrating, and awe inspiring collection. And worth slugging through...over time.
Diane Williams's short -- very, very short -- stories are intriguing, and generally start with a description of something very familiar and mundane and ending with a shocking twist. Like bestiality, incest, murder kind of shocking twist, always thrown in to the narrative as if nothing to be alarmed about. This is not something to be consumed in a single sitting. If you like reading a few pages at a time that will leave you a little disturbed, give this book a try. The stories are a little bit sick and disturbed -- and not always transparent.
These stories are extremely short and sometimes difficult to tackle due to the cadence, structure and perspective. The stories are often just a couple of pages long, so it's tough to analyse the premise or be carried away into the story. That being said, one does find oneself going back to reread and re-experience the short passages in order to reflect on the purpose of the story. While I don't like difficult fiction reads (I want my fiction fun and entertaining as my hard reading is saved for research), I do enjoy short stories.
