Today’s joy has been brought by the people at The Literateur and their publication of my short story, “Foreclosure”. It’s pretension quotient comes from the Fellini-esque inspiration (surely, more Bruce LaBruce). The reality quotient comes from being written on the day Bear Stearns collapsed and the bankruptcy of the age.
Hello Samuel,
Found your story on the Literateur, seems to have disappeared now, but while it was instantiated I really liked it!
Quite dense and very clever, think I know what you mean by the Fellini nod; slightly hazy, slightly sleazy like 8 and a 1/2.
best regards,
Michael.
