“In the end, art is small beer. The really serious things in life are earning one’s living so as not to be a parasite, and loving one’s neighbor.” — W. H. Auden
High Street 8 — “Plus ça Change” is posted today.
That is the end of High Street. Thanks for tuning in. Please tune in tomorrow and every day for whatever comes next.
Well, as I’ve said, I loved this. I wish I could carry it away with me and read it again, curled up in my chair. Well done, Tetman.
Thank you, Averil. This is what I would like to do, so it is what I am going to do: I have a PDF version of High Street, complete with illustrations, that I prepared a year ago. There are some minor differences between its text and the text as published on my website over the past month. These differences are almost all of punctuation; while I did make some small changes and cuts in wording, for clarity and tightness, and I deleted the story “Stoney Jay and Bobby Lee at the Battle of the Sunshine Jar,” there are otherwise no notable differences between the two texts. The PDF is a megabyte in size. I will email it to your cox.net address, then you will have it to read again at your leisure.
Thank you!!!
You’re welcome.
