November's C S R Feature: Street Life by Graeme


November is here, and this month I wanted to feature something different. There are a lot of stories on the site with themes that involve some heavy subjects that can really make you think, but one of the best of those is an older story that many current readers probably haven't found since it was posted for a 2008 anthology themed "Living in the Shadows".

 

Street Life

by Graeme

 

Length: 16,661

 

Description: *Reader warning* This story does contain mature themes & references to underage prostitution and suicide. 

 

A Reader said: That was depressing and uplifting at the same time. I've read New Brother, and I can remember the main charater (whom I despised utterly in spite of your heroic and brilliant effort to make him understandable and redeemable) being told Craig's story. It was one of the better moments in New Brother and I'm glad I finally managed to read Craig's story, even though it made me sad. ~ Timothy M

 

Please come back for our Discussion Day on Monday, November 27th.

I don't believe I've read this story.  Hopefully I'll have time before the discussion day. :)

Read and very much enjoyed despite the subject matter.

I haven't read this either, but the length isn't daunting. :)  I so want to read the last two Lilydale Leopard stories, but this seems more doable for the here and now. I love Graeme's writing, so I will try to get to this before month's end. Thanks for the suggestion, Cia.
