In my latest nonlinear story, I give glimpses into the lives of four people
early one morning.
A father and his daughter make up a story together about a dragon and a
goose. The father remembers a trip he has just made to London, to see an
exhibition of Chinese art. Upstairs, the mother fantasises about men finding
her attractive, but simultaneously worries that she may be seriously ill.
The mother and the little girl go outside to catch the bus to school. An old
professor who lives by the bus stop is remembering a curious incident from
between the wars, but interrupts his reminiscences long enough to look out
of his window and notice the mother and daughter waiting for the bus.
Nothing important happens. The four sections of the story can be read in any
order.
