Frontwards in a Backwards Movie

Ken Smith wanted to write a novel, so the story goes, but he couldn't make up his mind which novel, so he decided instead to write a chapter from each novel. But the chapters turned out to be paragraphs, and the paragraphs to be more like poems, and so this beautiful collection of twenty-one poetic fragments in prose came into existence.
