Looking Glass

   (1 review)
Genres: Historical,
Sub-genres: Non-Contemporary

 What is the nature of love and how do we feel about it?  Elliott is struggling because he likes a girl, needs her, but he doesn't really love her, not like he loved Claire.  Claire was the love of his life.  He bumps into another soul who is hurting from the same kind of condition.  In the end, the emotions become lyrical and we see how the creative process is sometimes a healing one.  Let's see if we can find the Coupe de Ville hiding at the bottom of a Cracker Jack box.  

This story was inspired by a mashup of two songs.  One is more obvious than the other.  Can you figure out from the Easter eggs I laid what they are?

What is love?  Is love real or is it something made up and we just accept it because we've heard about love in songs, books, and movies?  What if it's unrequited love and your feelings are never returned?  This is an interesting short story that addresses those questions through characters that have given their hearts, yet their love has not been returned.  Can they ever find love after these experiences or will their hearts be forever hardened into stone?   This story will cause you to think about these questions, but don't expect to find any answers here.  In fact, I'm not sure if you'll find those answers anywhere.
