RE: Adsactly Short Story - Two Dark Sides of a Coin
I loved this story, @jeanwandimi. The description you make of the landscape, especially that first part where there is aridity, is very vivid and clear. One gets to feel the dry mouth! The narration is slow and the absence of dialogue makes you perceive the spirit of disenchantment of all the people. The idea that man sometimes does not have the means to fight against nature is very clear. All that remains is to pray and entrust ourselves to God! I like that on both occasions (aridity and rain) the people have been united, which is how hardships are overcome. I like your end: an open end in which man cannot predict what will come and that only God knows the next step. Congratulations. Thank you for sharing.
I love this comment. It has been a long time since I did creative writing and the fact that it evoked such feelings for you is such a good thing to hear.
Thanks for your thoughtful feedback.
Cheers!
