All The Nonsense of Suffering



Before Sufjan Stevens hit the big time with his music career he was a lowly student getting his Masters of Fine Art in Creative Writing from the prestigious New School. Just as his musical compositions are unique, his fiction is voiced by off beat narrators, like Bethany Peters (who is dreadfully specific about what she will and won't tell you) and an unnamed Oboist (who dearly needs someone to be more specific than bad).

I love these two short stories and hope they bring a smile and a little joy to you.
