I can’t remember the last time I enjoyed a short story as much as ‘the
office door fiasco’ by @DanMalakin. Absolutely top notch. #amreading

A really great collection of flash stories which I highly recommend.

Short story collections are rarely this original and well-executed and I’m eagerly looking forward to more in-depth work from this writer (another review mentioned a novel next year so I’ve earmarked that already!)
