Small Economies, my book of minimalist fiction just out from Mayapple Press, got a positive review in the March 15 edition of Buzz, the weekly arts magazine published by Illini Media in Champaign-Urbana. The reviewer, David Ball, is a liberal arts senior at University of Illinois.
"In this flash fiction format," Ball writes, complexity is achieved by Palen's willingness to withhold information, focusing on those details most immediate in the character's mind and finding symbolism in those everyday objects on which we all fixate."
