We are all waiting for something. Waiting is inevitable, as is the event that follows it. Expected events can be very different: meetings, finds, mysterious incidents, troubles, happy moments. But I would venture to suggest that the most inevitable of the expected events is death (in the literal and broadest sense). But while we are all waiting for the inevitable, something can be done. For example, read this collection of short stories, novellas, miniatures and sketches from life. The collection includes both previously unpublished works and those that have already seen the light. Happy reading!
