The Selwyn Arms: A Quadruplex: A Novella in Four-Part Harmony

By Lew Holton

Welcome to The Selwyn Arms, a quadruplex. In Judeo-Christian tradition, there are four Gospels: Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John; but there are also four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. The human heart consists of four chambers, but then so does a cow's stomach. In the English language, love is a four-letter word, but so are our favorite and foulest swear words. There are four seasons (summer, fall, winter, spring), four cardinal directions (north, south, east, west), four suits of cards (hearts, diamonds, clubs, spades), four limbs on the human body, and though they were late showing up in the cosmic scheme of things, the Beatles were known as the Fab Four. The number 10 is often thought of and used as a representation of the "perfect" number, but it is merely the sum of the first four whole numbers (1 + 2 + 3 + 4). The number four is hand-written as either a securely closed, spearheaded, sharp figure or an open, vulnerable, almost chalice-like figure. The Selwyn Arms is a quadruplex: four apartments. Oh, the possibilities.
