Okay, I have one more post let to make for the month, so I'm going to make it count. A few years ago (2005) I wrote a novel and have been editing it here and there for half a decade. It is a coming of age story for two young college freshmen, set in New York City, with an updating of sorts of Goethe's
Sorrows of Young Werther. One of these days it will end up on somebody's bookshelf, but before then it needs a better title. The default one is "Brief Smiles," but it doesn't stand out enough. Here are some I have been considering, some more than others, what do you all think?
Brief Smiles
Everything With Wings Is Restless
Combination of the Two
Born to Go
The Millennials
Intercession Hours
The Late Great Planet Werner
War, What is it Good For?
The Bearditudes
The Towers and the Streets
Between the Windows of the Sea
Far From Perfect
Our Lady of Perpetual Astonishment
In the Devil’s Territory
Stained to Perfection
Trimalchio in West Egg
The City and its Discontents
I don't know what it is, but italics sure do make everything look bibliographical!
I like The Millenials and The Tower and the Streets
ReplyDeleteI go for "Everything with wings is restless" sounds like a proverb.
