Each of his sentences, paragraphs, and very, very short stories is a complete and independent act of narrative that delivers the very essence of narrative fiction. In spite of their brevity, these are works of great variety and complexity, displaying a fine intelligence and an inexhaustible capacity for verbal surprise. Holst breaks the very frame of what a story is and what language can do.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"AmazonUs\/INDPB","offers":[{"title":"Brilliant Silence | Spencer Holst | Paperback | 9781581770551 | Used: Very Good | Fiction 1633797","offer_id":50704632971522,"sku":"1633797","price":25.81,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/3327\/5906\/files\/61k5xuwIJJL.jpg?v=1791637801","url":"https:\/\/boswellsbooks.com\/products\/brilliant-silence","provider":"Boswell's Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
