A lovely short story about a dreamer.
I listened to in on Audible, narrated by Ben Stiller, which was a real treat. Really enjoyed this quick story.

Tiny book.

Lovely little story. I'd like more, please!

Even though this story is short, it one of the most well written stories that I have read in a very long time. I love that you are immediately ensconced in Walter's world, both his real-life & monotonous world, and his exciting & imaginary one. I really wish that this would have been a full-length novel because I enjoyed it so much!

I really loved Ben Stiller's narration. The movie remains a now favorite after seeing earlier this year.
