When Rosie Met Jim & Shoeboxes by Kathryn Barker, Melina Marchetta

emotional reflective

5.0

“The best is when you’re with someone who’s comfortable with silence, but doesn’t make you feel lonely.”

”You feel lonely sometimes?”

Always, she wants to say. Worse is when she feels lonely in the company of others.

Loved both short stories, but it was Melina Marchetta's story that really got me. She wrote such a beautiful story in less than 20 pages. How does she do that?
