Critical Analysis of Flash Fiction
Abstract
Flash fiction is one of the shortest genre of modern fictional
literature which typically consists on fewer than one thousand words.
Historically, it roots back from prehistoric period of somatic literature of
3500 B.C. Later on Aesop’s tales, Jataka tales and Punchtantar type of
literary examples can be counted in the same context. In 1920 this
genre had got its art formation from Europe and was renamed as short
short story.
The historical evolution of short short story in Sindhi literature
can be associated with the tales of watayo fakir. After that in 2005,
under the impact of European literature, short short story has got much
popularity in Sindhi literature as well and is written to great extent
covering multidimensional aspects of philosophical, psychological,
social, political, economic, cultural, feudal and commercial aspects of
Sindhi nation.
The most famous Sindhi writers of this genre are Manzoor
Kohyaar, Abbas Korejo and Ali Raza Qazi whose books are published.
Beside this short short story is widely written in many of the Sindhi
newspapers such as Awami Awaz, Kawish and Sindh Express, in
magzines and also posted on cyber literature.
Shortly, in this research paper I have thoroughly discussed and
analyzed Flash fiction, its different formats, history, art and philosophy
through different mediums.
