Junk City Tales: Evie Gardener pt1 - Polidori

A truly excellent and accomplished piece. I particularly loved the paragraph that follows the discovery of the vibrator:
"It had crept past the snap dragon guard and the barbed wire thorns of the climbing rose. Sex burglar. Clambering over flower beds; slender stems sway with the breeze; delicate petals pretend to blush bright pink or red, fake purity of bridal schemes; heavy with the scent of flower sex infused with perfumed nectar. Riffling into drawers looking to steal innocence. Purple irises; butterfly blue come morning glory. Post menstrual dawn: sex had entered. Evie's Barbie days were truly numbered."
The clipped sentences work beautifully. The language is full but never hard to follow. It feels so well honed.
I notice there's more where this came from; I look forward to reading them.
