Ninety-nine very short stories"

This collection of Mangala Tombattombathu Atisanna stories contains short stories by various voices of people of different ages, from Devudu to Kavya Kadame. These cannot be said to be restricted by the word limit. Take the story called Nhushwapna Naala. In this story, which is less than half a page, and is only about 85 words long, there is no specific face for either the person asking the question or the person answering. However, not only does it become clear to the reader who they are, but also the terrible truth of how a person can become a victim of the tyranny of a regime. Another story called Hutatma is six times longer. In this, a dramatic situation that leads to the anguish of a character is important, true. But why does that character react and become anguished in such a way to a situation that seems very ordinary? Only the character's past and present can answer this question. So this story is naturally long. The stories here feature a variety of narrative techniques, including male-centered narration, first-person narration, dialogue, allegory, fantasy, irony, confession, and more.

The special features of these stories are a single episode with a single action scene: a short duration: three or four characters speaking; a window that closes or opens; the click of the camera: a flash of experience or insight.
