did stand out, I might like them in isolation. As a collection though, they just didn't go anywhere. I don't mean a narrative resolution, they just invoked a feeling and then left it. I needed a bit more of something.
I could also do without the theme. It's not easy to write stories that stand alone and also fit this overarching image, and while I can see where that should tie in at the end and create meaning, it just doesn't work.
I don't know. Maybe I'm just not in the place for sad mundanity. Maybe in a week or a month I'll remember these stories and love them. Maybe we just have wildly different experiences of the circus, and of life.
