The Broken Record Technique is a collection of short stories by Canadian author Lee Henderson.
The tenth story, entitled simply "W", is considerably longer than the rest, standing at one hundred pages.
This was Lee Henderson's first book, and contained some previously published short stories, one of which, "Sheep Dub" was part of the 2000 Journey Prize Anthology.
The opening story "Attempts at a Great Relationship" describes a young man who lives through five possible scenarios at the new wave-pool with his wife, searching for the one that would save his marriage.
In this work, the "broken record" technique is a form of calm persistent repetition that allows the user to eventually achieve what they want.
