tcost1over 15 years agoIt is uncommon to find such a moving tale anywhere. The style was never uneven yet communicated the different time and place very effectively. It hurt when the protagonist was so sharp to the heroine, but when her tears won him over once again it made up for all.
This was splendid.
Frogsoupover 15 years agoYou've written a very good story CAP, well-written and moving. The characters are very human. The direction was a bit predictable, but it was the only conceivable outcome (pardon the pun). Keep writing!
Anonymousover 15 years agoA fascinating story, and certainly a most unusual one. With the set-up and the explanation, it is plausible. In any event, it is nicely written.

Anonymousover 15 years agoOf all the short stories I have read on the net, this is the one I will use as a standard. Bitter sweet, yet evoking the period beautifully this story will stay in my mind.
Thank you

it`s a pity it did`nt go on longer,
i would like to find out what happened to the young man with red hair and his sarah /lillan.
Anonymousover 15 years agoWhat a great story. It actually begs for a continuation.
It is not often that a short story can captivate like this one then have the legs to turn into a book.
I hope you take this story to the limit and conclude with Lillian and Adam and their son fading into the sunset.
