TWO GIRLS IN A CAFÉ

London, England: The 60s. Two Girls in the Café is about an English and an American who were once close friends, meeting for old-time for a cup of tea, chatting and giggling to the delight of their hearts. By chance, the American sees a young man in the street walking she claims to know. The English girl is surprised since she also claims to know the young man, and the idea amazes the girls that they both know him. But there is a tossup because the girls know the young man by two different names.

The style reminds me of O. Henry my favorite short story writer

I loved this short story. I loved the character development, the suspense as well as the unusual twist in the tale which I never saw coming. Lawrence Taylor is an exceptionally talented short story writer & he reminds me of O.Henry who is one of my favorite short story writers. The story is about a chat between two young women, Felicity & Ruth in a cafe. They see someone passing by whom they recognize & then begins a wonderful intellectually packed conversation as the reader decodes who is telling the truth & who is not. I really liked this short story & it was a fun read. I highly recommend this short story by accomplished short story writer Lawrence Taylor to everyone wanting a quick, intelligent but enjoyable read. I look forward to reading more short stories & books by Lawrence Taylor in the near future.
