description: Ways to Read the World is another masterwork by a brilliant weaver of the compact tale. Robert Scotellaros ability to compress whole worlds into a few sentences is singular and always profoundly entertaining and illuminating. As with the authors previous short-short fiction collections this new effort challenges the readers complacency and imaginationa sudden turn of phrase and the train is off its tracks and bound in unexpected directions. The innovative triptych format works to marvelous effect expanding and enriching the motifs and themes of its luminous prosetry. Scotellaros artistry wit and insight are on exquisite display in this superb new volume. A triple delight and triumph.  Michael C. Keith author Insomnia 11 and Quiet Geography.
