19. The Haunted Boy by Carson McCullers
Our next tale
How do you follow up Edgar Allan Poe’s ‘The Tell-Tale Heart? By diving into one of my absolute favourite tales! And that is Carson McCullers’ harrowing and heart-wrenching tale, The Haunted Boy.
You can read the tale here. I’ll post my thoughts on Monday 19 May and you can join in the discussion at that point.
If you love short stories, this is the place to be!
At Short Story Club, we read the classics, taking our time to reflect on what makes them great. I also do my best to pick lesser-known stories. If you’ve always wanted to get into short stories but don’t know where to start, here is your new home. (And it’s all free).
Until next week.
May your shadow never grow less,
Paul O
