"I cannot and will not cut my conscience to fit this year’s fashions.” – Lillian Hellman
Telling Stories
by janeeatonhamilton
I’ve just read Chekhov’s “The Student,” Kafka’s “The Sirens,” William Carlos William’s “The Use of Force,” David Leavitt’s “Gravity,” and Russell Bank’s “Just Don’t Touch Anything.” This is good use of sleepless, cranky, sick time. Go, boys, go. (From “Telling Stories,” ed J C Oates, 1998, Ontario Review)
