Speculate: A Collection of Microlit by Eugen BaconMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Speculate is a collection that is hard to define, but intriguing to read. It's microlit, it's poetry, it's a back and forth that breaks many boundaries of the ordinary literary work. On top of that, it has a layer of speculative fiction that gets you out of your comfort zone and lets your imagination take a completely different direction.
This is the kind of collection that you can easily read on piece each day and let it sink in. You wouldn't want to rush it because it is so full of imagery and a back and forth between the two authors that make you want to think about what's going on in the piece. I like that the authors also switch places halfway through the book to get a different perspective on who creates the image and who reacts to it. I would recommend this collection for anyone who wants something a little different or anyone who likes to read short pieces.
