Nod Ghosh: Forty-One Years

July 29, 2015 Flash Fiction

The glue from a stamp furs my tongue like rubber cement. I can’t post a letter into the past, but I can send it to your last known address.

It was the Indian heat. Blistering, a few weeks before Christmas. I was thirteen.

Nod Ghosh: Bubbles

October 28, 2015 Fiction
