Mini-Sagas From the Daily Telegraph Competition 2001

England's Daily Telegraph sponsors an annual contest for this unique genre, a sort of prose haiku. A mini-saga is a story with a beginning, middle, and end but it can only be fifty words long, exactly (try it, it isn't easy). Herewith are the winning 2001 entries: witty, inventive, provocative, tantalizing mini tales -- of love, tragedy, religion, horror, the future -- and other strong contenders as selected by the committee led by the noted SF author, Brian Aldiss, as well as some specially commissioned pieces. And the winner is! Nigel Lodge's "Regular Meetings"Aldiss, Brian W. is the author of 'Mini-Sagas From the Daily Telegraph Competition 2001' with ISBN 9781900564779 and ISBN 1900564777.
