en Limba Engleză Paperback
"A dazzling storyteller" Amy Scheibe, Free Press, Simon & Schuster Ltd. What happens when a bookshelf, a computer and a human mind collide? 150 particle fictions, prose poems and nanodramas about eagles, trolls, Oulipo, Taylor's Theorem, Walden, sylosis, dogs, bumfles, leeches, toasted diamonds and other unexpected inspirations from award-winning Scottish writer Jules Horne. Horne was afflicted with an extreme form of writer's block known as writer's lock. Could a scientific experiment be the answer? She decided to write A STORY A DAY. IN FIVE MINUTES. This playful collection of daily stories draws on the spirit of Oulipo, in a quest to investigate the interface between book, web and human imagination. "Free will is the sensation of making a choice." Brian Greene Praise for Wrapped Town by Jules Horne "Magical and profound, but light and funny at the same time... a dazzling storyteller" Amy Scheibe, Free Press, Simon & Schuster Inc. "Immensely talented and truly original" Anjali Singh, Vintage Books "Vibrantly original tales." Mike Johnson, Open University
