Below is a review of my short story, The Letters. It is one of several.
Triumph over loss
Marie lost her beloved husband Edward and is terribly sad because she misses him so much. While searching through Edward’s things, she comes upon a chest under his desk. Opening the trunk, she finds letters Edward had written to her over the years but had never given to her. As Marie reads the letters, her life with Edward rushes back to her; the joy and love of this man. The letters are accompanied by paranormal happenings, including the sensation of the presence of Edward. As she sits with the letters scattered about her feet, she knows he is with her always.
THE LETTERS is a well-written short story by Pittershawn Palmer. Her descriptions are so good, it is as if you are there with Marie, suffering her sorrow as well as rejoicing in her happiness. It is an uplifting story about love and loss, sorrow and joy, and above all else, hope. It is a story anyone who has ever lost a loved one can relate to and appreciate.
