Canon Alberic's Scrap-Book
Found this to be a nice little october snack. A guy discovers something fascinating and it comes with a little more than he bargained for. Not much going on with character or interiority, just a set up, plot actions, and an ending that felt a little bit like the James just trailing off, which I rather enjoyed. It felt like someone you’ve just met in a pub telling you a story, and once the action ends, the story’s just over, why come up with a drawn out denouement. Could easily have ended with the traditional German fairy tale ending: “and if they haven't died, then they are still living today."
