635 words
A Clean, Well Lighted Place is a story of lights
and shadows, of the coexistence of ''being'' and
''nothingness''. An old man sits outside the cafe,
on the terrace, where all the tables are empty
except then one he sits at. He hides himself in
the shadow - the perfect hiding-place, a hide-out

1,247 words
The moist air of the cave hovers in a homeostatic
manner around the mans conditioned skin. He sits,

contrary, perhaps the most replicated example of
classic Egyptian art, from the Old Kingdom, can be
found in their rendering of the human form. An
