The Guava Man

Justin Brouckaert

4.9/5 (30646 ratings)

Description:This story was originally published in Day One, a weekly literary journal dedicated to short fiction and poetry from emerging writers.Though the young couple hadn’t been married long, they didn’t consider their happiness a product of blind newlywed bliss. Rather, they attributed it to a unique ritual: when one partner offended the other, he or she offered a guava as an apology. This token of love had always soothed their small, simple disagreements, but when the husband offends the wife and offers her a dragon fruit instead, the disruption to their tidy habit—and the breakdown of communication—have far-reaching consequences. As their conflicts multiply, anxiety and exotic fruit fill their home, muddling the once-clear gesture the couple had used to reconcile. Told with fantastical cynicism, The Guava Man is a modern fairytale about young love, sweetness, and life beyond the first stages of ripening.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
