Short stories online, Day 7
'Frog Pond', by Chelsea Quinn Yarbro
I'm very fond of CQY's short fiction, though I couldn't find my absolute favourite ('The Fellini Beggar') online. I like the mythic and cultural references, the straightforward narration, the twists ... This is a sweet little tale that lets go its secrets gradually, with admirable pacing and without really ever coming out and saying what's going on.
