Darcey Steinke, "Milk"

A young mother takes her baby for a walk and waits for her husband to come home.

(from Black Clock #3)

Well, plot-wise, there’s not a lot going on, but this is a pretty day-in-the-life examination of a deep and sympathetic character. Aha, this “story” is really an excerpt from her new book, also called Milk. So, there’s probably a for-real plot TK. I’m not a book person. I read short stories, approximately one per day. But I’m guessing it’ll be a good, warm, humane book that somebody would enjoy.
Steinke runs a “web project” called Blindspot, which you can find here. My browser is not compatible with it; I use Firefox. To me it’s all floating icons and secret handshakes.
