Ophelia

from Shorts. · host Shorts the Podcast

This week, we're reading "Ophelia" by Breanne McIvor. It was published in April 2017 on Adda, the online literary magazine of the Commonwealth Short Story Prize. Ophelia is a story about a young man who falls for a woman in the cast of a play he is in. As he prepares for a coffee with her - which could be their first date - he realises the distance between them, and decides he can’t go through with it. This is a story about class, about race, and how to navigate who you are.
