- The Contract
on Jan. 04, 2012
This is the kind of thing I think the Kindle will re-Kindle. The readable short story (as well as the novella). For years I've tried to read short stories and realized they're often nothing more than literary onanistic exercises. Not "The Contract". The author tells a well constructed story about a man, his children and the man's solution to protecting his children from his demons. A nice story is told and a bit of insight into the human condition is shown.
