Trula wonders if the lady who lives downstairs peeks in through the reverse peephole in CJ’s apartment door.

(from Pindeldyboz Issue 3)

A very short story. First time I read it, I thought it was sort of art schoolly and non-plussing. Then, because it’s so short, I read it again. And I totally dug it. The characters are art fucks, but the story is smarter and less pretentious than I first gave it credit for. Hooray for brevity. Hooray for second chances.
