Short Tall Stories

By S.J. White

These stories have been written over the last 40 years. As each idea came to me, I built a short story around it. When I was a boy, I was intrigued by stories of various kinds: adventure tales, humorous stories, love stories, science fiction and tales of the absurd. Especially memorable were: Jules Verne's Journey to the Centre of the Earth; the horror of The Pit and the Pendulum by Edgar Allan Poe, and that of The Monkey's Paw by W.W. Jacobs; and the humour of Jerome K. Jerome's Three Men in a Boat. The short story, with its brevity, seems to me to be an ideal package for our urgent world. I wrote these stories in memory of the boy who read the great authors. They are tales of adventure, humour, love, science fiction, and the absurd.
