Ghost Ship (The Illopogas) LV Gaudet

A pall hung over the moon, misty clouds stringing across the sky like the tattered remnants of a ghostly sail.  The endless sound of the ocean forever in motion whispered ceaselessly like the incomprehensible roar of a far away stadium crowd. Pale light from the moon reflected weakly off the constant gently rolling water, illuminating [...]

Love, Lust and Conspiracy – Chapter One RHPolitz

A chance meeting, a strong physical attraction and deep psychological secrets blossom into a rare passionate love that melds two souls into one. Such euphoria is celebrated in fairy tales and folk lore but does it really exist or is it merely a diehard romanticist's wishful imagination? Perhaps there are some who find it, some who are not necessarily the stereotypical "boy and girl", some who don't care what society calls them as long as they can be together. This romantic tale of sex, love and murder is based on the life of a talented, humble and very gutsy genius who suffered endless mockery and ridicule till a beautiful woman changed all the rules.

Uncle Salvatore – part two Angie

A ministerial Fiat 130 limousine came to a screeching halt in front of us, and a slender, well dressed man in his late thirties got out of the car in a smooth cat-like manner… ‘Uncle Salvatore’ Catharina squealed, hurling herself at him and hugging him passionately. ‘Ciao, tesorina’, he said in a low baritone, smiling [...]

Uncle Salvatore – part one Angie

(continued from: “The Bishop”) A sudden draft made me shiver, and as I was wondering how this was possible in this heat of summer, the door of Mother Ferocia’s office swung open, revealing a stocky, authoritarian woman. ‘Greetings, my children, may the lord bless you and your loved ones. Please step into my chambers’, she [...]

The Bishop – part three Angie

(continued from: “The Bishop – part two”) We got off the train and asked for information about the last part of our trip to the Convent of San Bonifacio. Unlike me, Catharina seemed to be suffering disproportionately from having her period, and as a result looked ominous during the whole trip. When we got off [...]

The Bishop – part two Angie

(continued from: “The Bishop – part one“) We left the “Pensione Mirafiori” immediately after breakfast and got on a bus to Livorno’s Central Station.

The Bishop – part one Angie

(continued from: “The Corsicans“) As the door of the restaurant closed behind us, Catharina slipped her arm under my elbow and sisterly we walked towards The “Pensione Mirafiori” (bed & breakfast) that was recommended by the chef, and supposed to be just a few blocks away. The intimacy of the moment was felt by the [...]
