Jewish Fiction.Net has published my story “The Sad Hungarian.”
I believe I wrote with the simple idea of having two
characters caught in a web of their own agreement, and having no way out. When I gave the story a Holocaust theme for
that deal, I felt the guilt of exploitation.
But after I saw Claude Lanzman’s 9 hour documentary “Shoah,”
I realized that anything was possible during that terrible calamity; that the
normal law of human nature were suspended.
And that my story did not so much have to be true, as ring true.
