"Petrichor. It was a particular smell that wafted up when those first big droplets of rain begin to thump against the hard-packed red earth of the African savannah..." New short fiction set in one of the world's most dangerous countries. <zora.co/collect/zora:0x64A3C20Aeb8470704cFD1baE61847278Ed738bE8/2>
As someone who holds a graduate diploma in philosophy from the University of Melbourne, I always enjoy reading your thoughtful essays on various aspects of the subject! Well done (again!)
This is a very intense story... I am hoping there will be a happy ending for our Bahrupiya - but I know that is not the way that many stories end!
Very powerful characters - and I love the quotes!
Boro is no Manga-chan, but I do find Dr. Lee's thesis (and the evidence she is collecting) to be quite interesting!
As a fan of anime and lambs, and as one of the OG Lamsters, I love everything about this! Can't wait for the second installment!
What an amazing collection of poems!
My favorites are "Embracing Gratitude" and "Bleed the Same"
Love-love-love your work!
Thanks, Quanta! I'll be sure to let you know when I have a "reworked" version of this story available!
THE LAST ROAD
“We had never seen so many bones in one place. The scale of this so-called battlefield defies comparison with anything in humanity’s own very long and very bloody history.”
– Dr. Janis Alfarens, UNSS "Beagle"
