pickButler uses two concepts as the basis for these stories. First, after decapitation the human head is believed to remain in a state of consciousness for 90 seconds. Second, in a heightened emotional state, people speak at the rate of 160 words per minute. Speakers are historical figures as well as mythical figures & even animals. Rather than focusing on the moment of death, these are lyrical flash fiction scenes of important moments in their lives.

vivastory @Moray_Reads Inevitably some pieces worked much better than others, but quite a number were like narrative prose poems & lyrical mini-narratives. I also greatly enjoyed his collection![[tagged book]](https://image.librarything.com/pics/litsy_webpics/icon_taggedBook@3x.png)
