Virtual Storyteller, Caledonia Skytower |
A favorite short story of mine is Poe's The Sphinx. In my Complete Works of ... it is classifed under "Humor and Satire." It still bears the unmistakable tint of macabre. An emotionally distraught man is filled with apprehensions of doom and death during the cholera epidemic in New York City of 1832. The stress of this emotional state causes him to see omens and portents where they may not actually be and to, literally, blow them out of proportion.
Much thanks to my dear friend Shandon Loring for helping assemble this presentation. It is posted on YOUTube under my virtual story self, Caledonia Skytower.
