«Histoires pressées» is a short story collection by Bernard Friot, published by Milan in paperback (126 pages, in French).
The book brings together 33 very brief stories, one or two pages long, that jump from one subject to another without warning. There are fantastical tales, everyday scenes and stories with a surprising twist; some adopt unexpected formats, such as a play or a personal diary. The overall tone is humorous and close to the young reader.
The work is part of the «Histoires pressées» series, of which it is the first volume, and won the 2009 Andersen Prize in the best book for 9-12 year olds category.
Aimed at children's and young adult readers, especially ages 9 to 12, who are looking for short stories with an ironic and surprising tone.
