More a collection of nanobites than a single story, Kostelanetz's "Shorter Stories" are one-sentence introductions to ideas for stories--but what a set of ideas. These are like little bits of wit that make you laugh and then think.

And the sentences are interesting--enough that you might want to check them out here, at the Marco Polo Quarterly.
