Nothing Is Ever One Thing is a Master Class in flash fiction. These elegant stories shine a slanted light on the high wire act of human existence with a unique blend of pathos and grit. Robert Scotellaro’s microfictions are breathtaking little epiphanies.
Robert Scotellaro has published widely in national and international books, journals and anthologies, including W.W. Norton’s Flash Fiction International, NANO Fiction, Gargoyle, New Flash Fiction Review, Matter Press, and many others. Two of his stories were included in Best Small Fictions (2016 and 2017). He is the author of seven literary chapbooks, several books for children, and three full-length story collections: Measuring the Distance, What We Know So Far (winner of The 2015 Blue Light Book Award), and Bad Motel.
“Nothing Is Ever One Thing is a perfect Scotellaro stew of geishas, bingo callers, stuntmen, and musical saw bands, sprinkled throughout with micro-fables and other tasty bits. The magic and beauty of chance are celebrated along with the various relationships we live in every day. Brilliant stories from the pen of a flash fiction master.”—Francine Witte, author of The Way of the Wind and Dressed All Wrong for This
Nothing Is Ever One Thing. It takes a visionary writer to slap that brilliant title on a book, then show us how it is true.” —Pamela Painter, author of Ways to Spend the Night and Wouldn’t You Like to Know
“If I had a Hall of Fame of flash fiction writers, Robert Scotellaro would be in it.” —Robert Shapard, co-editor of W.W. Norton’s Flash Fiction International and Sudden Fiction
“Nothing Is Ever One Thing is a Master Class in flash fiction. These elegant stories shine a slanted light on the high wire act of human existence with a unique blend of pathos and grit. Robert Scotellaro’s microfictions are breathtaking little epiphanies.” —Meg Pokrass, author of Damn Sure Right and Alligators At Night
