I won't actually get any of the magazines until I get home of course, but I also received digital access to the entire set of archives with the subscription. I searched through and found many Gallant stories published in the 50's and 60's so I'll start with some of those. Will let you know if any others grab me like this story did!Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16478839034249164862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5232927064230838150.post-9625228376822877152015-06-15T21:08:00.993-07:002015-06-15T21:08:00.993-07:00I'm so happy you enjoyed the story, Rachel.

It's always this one that sticks with me.Denise https://www.blogger.com/profile/08269617590521412393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5232927064230838150.post-59977342939699222292015-06-13T11:19:08.388-07:002015-06-13T11:19:08.388-07:00You recommended this to me before and it went on &...You recommended this to me before and it went on 'the list' because I couldn't figure out how to download that episode to my ipod (too old). That list that sometimes gets attention, and sometimes gets forgotten for months on end. this morning, sitting down with some tea and my knitting, on a rare day when I could take a few hours off, I finally searched this out. Thank you for the reminder. The language...'heavily idle'...'not in horror, even less with compassion, but still suspended'. Wow. And I wonder now, if I would have enjoyed it as much reading it on my own. Because you are right that the pairing of the voice and the words was perfect. Ignoring that question, I have added some more of her short stories to my TBR list. You never disappoint with your suggestions...Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16478839034249164862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5232927064230838150.post-10685802189525348562015-06-03T20:10:26.773-07:002015-06-03T20:10:26.773-07:00So happy you enjoyed it, Michele!So happy you enjoyed it, Michele!Denise https://www.blogger.com/profile/08269617590521412393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5232927064230838150.post-47105163369848648192015-05-28T12:27:15.340-07:002015-05-28T12:27:15.340-07:00Thank you for introducing me to Mavis Gallant.
