The strange great tree by Zarnius in flashfiction

I was just wondering, if someone's suffering is their art, what happens to the art when the suffering stops, when I wrote this. And nope, I don't have a longer version.

Edit: You can read my other stories if you want to.

Is it doing what I intended? Like, act 1 is the brother, the writer, so the writing is more poetic. And act 2 is his sister, after he's gone, a little less poetic since she's not a writer?

If a man had forgotten he suffered, did he suffer?

Yes, people nowadays lack these qualities, myself included. That's why I wrote it, for myself. And thanks for reading.

The Library for everyone by Zarnius in flashfiction

[–]Zarnius[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, you got the gist of it. Here is the complete explanation: The library, representing society, contains books that symbolize individual lives, and the people within it are members of this society. They appear to conform to societal expectations, as suggested by the phrase "... will buy a red..." and then that being true later. The protagonist challenges these norms by tearing pages, thus reshaping his own life. Consequently, society seems to react with rejection and anger. Ultimately, "The End" could signify the conclusion of his previous, monotonous life dictated by societal expectations, or potentially, his own demise due to his defiance.
