OFFICIAL REVIEW BY ALPHATECH MEDIA:
Theodore Jerome Cohen has composed another assortment of brief tales for readers who love this sort. Mementos: A Unique Collection of Short Stories and Flash Fiction has arrived at its fifth volume, and as in Cohen’s different books, likewise in the current volume, the narratives are enlivened by a photo. In spite of the fact that there are some more drawn out (generally talking) stories in Mementos, the greater part of the stories included here are extremely short, yet lengthy enough to permit the reader to understand the characters and their thought processes and to see the value in the essayist’s imagination and ability.
It’s difficult to completely survey such a different work inside the word count that these audits are restricted to, as every one of the passages feels deserving of a survey by its own doing to do them equity. I will say that it’s a demonstration of writer Theodore Jerome Cohen’s gifts as an essayist that he’s ready to visit such countless various styles and sorts in a single assortment and leave this commentator attempting to distinguish a point of failure among them. I revered the procedure behind the compositions, each start with a photo and afterward the creator extrapolating from the picture. It considers an individual understanding into the essayist to see the source material for the story and afterward read what they selected, what suspicions they made, what translations they made, and what they felt when they checked the picture out. In general, Mementos is a progression of books with a lot of mileage, presently on its fifth volume and giving no indications of reaching a dead end.
There is continuously something uniquely great in Theodore Jerome Cohen’s books. I see myself as a devotee of his works, and each time I read his brief tales, I realize that I won’t be disheartened. On the off chance that I feel that each story starts with a photo and, in the wake of understanding it, I pause and recollect where it began, I am shocked at how far going thanks to a striking imagination is conceivable. This is only one of the characteristics of Mementos. The other is that, notwithstanding the capacity to compose stories beginning from a picture, Cohen is likewise enlivened by settings and characters that share nothing practically speaking with one another. This makes Mementos an incredibly fluctuated book, while every story is an alternate diamond. In the event that you are curious about Cohen’s brief tales yet, I enthusiastically suggest Mementos; assuming you are now a fan, I don’t have to let you know that they will satisfy your hopes.
