I was at some bookshop and thought of reading a bit of some collection of short stories which the shopkeeper had suggested that i read some time ago. I expected to not like anything, since the collection was by a living author, and moreover a greek one (and i read very few contemporary greek writers i must admit).
However i was very pleasantly surprised.
It turns out the story was based on a Nick Cave song, probably with the same name (From her to eternity). It was a good story, one could not tell what exactly had happened- if anything had happened outside of the narrator's imagination. There was blood, and voyerism. The writer is female, but the narrator was a man.
Now i plan to have a look at some more of her work, and probably will end up buying that one.
-What was the last good story you read?
-Do you read all kinds of authors, or mostly from set periods?
The internet is great for communicating with people one does not know, so i will probably send her a message on Facebook, although i really doubt she has read anything by me.
