Welcome to Tales By Tom. This is the seventh installment of Tom Cagley Sr's short story collections entitled, “Windows On THe World.”
This week we have two stories
Bonjour Tristesse: It was a first novel of a talented young French girl which was sent to me by a girlfriend in 1955 who’d saddened by my departure. As I read what she wrote inside 57 years, I wonder what happened to Chicago’s Marianne Bykowski.
Sail on! Sail on! I certainly practiced Columbus’ speech enough, then gave it without any hiccups and was rewarded for my birthday with a radio. Which I didn’t see again for a half century.
I encourage you to provide feedback on these stories or any of the earlier shorts by email at talesbytom@gmail.com or by voicemail at 1 206 339 5456.

The music is a song titled "Rhapsody" by Andy Guthrie and was supplied Music Alley from Mevio (www.musicalley.com).
See you in two weeks!
