ChrisR Posted May 21, 2017 Report Share Posted May 21, 2017 I accidentally stumbled here into At The End of the String, by Simon Jimenez. Bar none, it is the finest short story I may have ever read. It's not your typical happy-go-lucky tale by any stretch of the imagination. But it is true beauty in prose. http://awesomedude.com/simonj/at_the_end_of_the_string.htm Link to comment
colinian Posted May 23, 2017 Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 The first time I read this story I knew what was coming after reading the sentence: “Come back,” I whispered, but in vain. Maybe I should have guessed sooner, but it was that sentence that was the clincher. I also tear up every time I read this story, even though I know exactly how it's going to end. That's the mark of an outstanding story. Colin Link to comment
Lugnutz Posted May 29, 2017 Report Share Posted May 29, 2017 I don't think I read this before. It has it all. I very much like it. Link to comment
