Description
In screenwriting, a flashcut switches scenes instantaneously, with no time for fade-ins or fade-outs. In FLASHCUTS OUT OF CHAOS, Charles W. Brice poetically encounters the tumultuous era of the fifties to the present. Race relations, Conscientious Objection to the Vietnam War, the vagaries of Catholic education, life in small town America form the flashcuts that both order and create the chaos of the author’s experience. Along the way, Brice engages the subjects of love, marriage, religion, friendship, death, philosophy, psychoanalysis, and baseball, often in a simultaneously humorous, ironic, and gripping fashion.
