Bewildering Stories welcomes...

Yelena Litinskaya

Yelena is a graduate of Moscow University but currently lives in the U.S. She has published poetry and short stories in many periodicals and anthologies in the U.S. and Europe. She’s very active in organizations promoting Russian-language literature in her locality and on the Internet.

“The Artist” tells the story of a portrait artist, Tom, from the point of view of a librarian who has befriended him. Tom’s fortunes and ultimate misfortune take on a sympathetic shading that an omniscient narrator could not have provided.

Welcome to Bewildering Stories, Yelena. We hope to hear from you again soon and often!
