  1. I read and studied many a short story back in the day, i wonder how many of these i would recognize.

  2. D'aquests recordo la Virginia Woolf, tot i que sóc un desastre per recordar noms, però no allò que escriuen.

    Avui crec veure el personatge assegut, darrera una taula.😉

    1. I once had hundreds of phone numbers stored in my memory, which is not necessarily common, but useful in my job. Since smartphones have been around, I almost only remember names. The brave new world is not necessarily good for the development of the human brain.

  3. Recognize some names from books long ago. I don't read too many short stories these days.

    1. Nothing against excellent novels. For decades I prefered to read short stories to end a day, though, and in anthologies to meet authors I might otherwise not have come to know.
