This is the first Tale in a series of linked Urban Fables about, as the series' title suggests, "Tales Of A Small Boy In A Big Room".
Each story stands on its own and is being released as a Kindle Single. But they all connect in a much larger meta-narrative. Much like our lives.
When we meet the boy, in "Vegetable Talk" he's imprisoned by curtains, surrounded by vegetables, lost on his bicycle & caught by plums. Tales of a singular childhood of the little boy in a big room. Not yet a Gargoyle, not yet a Poet, he waits each night for his vegetable gruel. Sometimes a room is just too big.
Fairy Tale, Fable - and Short Story combine in a new path, towards the surreal for this author.
A Gargoyle Poet heads towards the true stars.
