"Novels in Three Lines" Felix Feneon, Translated and with an Introduction by Luc Sante<\/p><\/div>\n

In my new spill drawings I have changed the scale of the coffee stains, which results in less readable text content. I was interested to see how this\u00a0decision\u00a0has shifted the emphasis away from an\u00a0abbreviated\u00a0article<\/em>, and more onto each individual word that’s exposed. I’ve been reminded of a book I read last year Novels in Three Lines.\u00a0The book is a collection of brief news stories, written by Felix Feneon, and published in 1906 in the Paris daily newspaper Le Matin<\/em>. It’s a good read for anyone interested in Twitter as well, he works within the limits of three printed lines for each brief piece of news.\u00a0Below is an excerpt from the introduction, and a few examples of Feneon’s writing:<\/p>\n

“N<\/em>ewspapers in many countries apart from the United States run columns of such brief stories, which in French are called <\/em>faits-divers (\u201csunday events\u201d; \u201cfillers\u201d are nearly but not quite the same\u2014there is no simple English equivalent). They cover the same subjects as the rest of the paper\u2014crime, politics, ceremony, catastrophe\u2014but their individual narratives are compressed into a single frame, like photographs. <\/em>They may suggest, portend, echo, pose questions, present enigmas, awaken troubling memories, but they usually do not have a second act.<\/em>“<\/em><\/p>\n

The charge of embezzlement against the management of
\nthe Toulon artillery amounts to nothing, according to the
\nmanager’s inquiry.<\/em><\/p>\n

Scheid, of Dunkirk, fired three times at his wife. Since he
\nmissed every shot, he decided to aim at his mother-in-law,
\nand connected.<\/em><\/p>\n

No more briar pipes. Their makers, in Saint-Claude, have
\nstopped work until they are paid better.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
