Vinstories Volume 1: The Serious Silliness of Things

Vpciambriello01 Dec, 2023Other

"With this collection of short stories Vincent Ciambriello born in Brooklyn, New York, extends his talent as a songwriter into the realms of imaginative fiction. Refreshingly entertaining, his stories are by turns droll, erudite and sardonic but, most importantly, engaging and well-written. With songwriting, every word has to have a purpose and Vincent has used this discipline to good effect so that the narrative stays on point, keeping the action moving but with amusing flourishes that add humor and literary interest. Many of the stories have the potential to be the basis of a film or play but the pleasure for the reader lies in the act of using the imagination to create a mis -en- scene of their own. And this, I believe, is the essence of good storytelling. "
