Review: Not enough detail
Rating: 2 out of 5

The best flash fiction makes you feel it was just the right length.  Not every story is the right one for this format.There was too much left out of this story, too much left unsaid.  The tragedy of the situation is assumed, but not felt by the reader.  I also didn't feel it conveyed a sense of the time very well . . . it could have been any time, any place -- not in the sense that a great story is universal, but in the sense that there was just too little to distinguish these characters and their setting.This is more like an outline for a story than an actual working story.
