En Cómo escribir un microrrelato, Ana María Shua nos da, desde su valiosa experiencia, las claves para llegar desde la primera idea a la obra terminada. Como el material del que se parte es pequeño y frágil, hay riesgo de que se rompa en el proceso. En este género cada palabra tiene el peso de una roca. Pero el gran placer del escritor de microrrelatos es la posibilidad de llegar de una sola vez desde la torpe materia prima hasta una joya perfecta. La técnica es el tema de este libro.
