Two ghosts wander around their old house.
(from A Haunted House and Other Stories)
Whatever hour you woke there was a door shutting. From room to room they went, hand in hand, lifting here, opening there, making sure — a ghostly couple.
Kind of a peacefully spooky story. Some of the language was so vague, maybe antiquated?, that I wasn’t always sure Ii was picking up on everything I was supposed to. Still it was lovely. I wouldn’t say I’m afraid of Virginia Woolf, but it’s early. This is the first thing of hers I’ve read.
I read this on a (loaner) Kindle. You can read it here.
I read this for the first time back in April. It is quite a short story for such a concise space. (And love your site, by the way. Has sent me in search of some stories.)
