420 Characters | Lou Beach
2 posts | 2 read
Alternately surreal, funny, ominous, and lyrical, Lou Beachs 420 Characters offers an experience as dazzling as any in contemporary fiction. Revealing worlds of meaning in single paragraphs, these crystalline miniature stories that began as Facebook status updates mark a new turn in an acclaimed artist and illustrators career. This e-book edition has been enhanced with original collages by the author and with exclusive audio of fifteen stories brilliantly read by legendary rock musician Dave Alvin, Golden Globe-winning actor Ian McShane, and Academy Award winner Jeff Bridges.

I always keep a small curated collection of books in the bathroom, because - let's be honest - it's a great place to read. This one is an all-time bathroom classic as far as I'm concerned. Lou Beach wrote each of these tiny stories as Facebook posts back when the platform had a 420 character limit. They are raucous, and poetic, and dark, and funny. Whenever I need a little writer inspiration I crack this book to any page and read.
