Heinrich Böll
Literature & Fiction / Travel / Short Stories
Cited by the Nobel Prize committee as the “crown” of Heinrich Böll’s work, the gripping story of Group Portrait With Lady unspools like a suspenseful documentary.

At the center of her struggle is her effort to prevent the demolition of her Cologne apartment building, a fight in which she is joined by a motley group of neighbors. Along with her illegitimate son, Lev, she becomes the nexus of a countercultural group rebelling against Germany’s dehumanizing past under the Nazis ... and what looks to be an equally dehumanizing future under capitalism.

Group at the Grand Cafe
Georges Simenon
M,
in retirement at Meung-sur-Loire, has taken to spending his days
playing manille at the Grand Café, where he has become one of the
regulars. The other players sometimes vary, including Hubert, the
butcher, whose shop is across the way, Urbain, the veterinarian mayor,
Citroën, the mechanic, the blacksmith, and sometimes the café owner
played as well. One evening, after the game, the news came in that the
butcher had been killed. He'd had a lot of cash with him and had told
everyone he was driving it over to the notary's for safekeeping. M shows
no interest in the case at all, even though everyone comes to see him
about it, including Angèle, the 20-year-old waitress at the café, whom
the butcher was in love with, and Urbain was as well, the mayor himself,
and Gabrielli, the superintendent. M's refusal to participate puzzles
and annoys everyone, but eventually the crime goes unsolved. A few years
later, after several people have died, M explains to his wife that he'd
realized quickly that it had been a suicide made to look like a murder,
so that his wife would collect the insurance. He had refused to
participate since he didn't see why he should have a hand in denying the
family the money.

SUMMARY: In the summer of 1947, an unidentified object crashed in Roswell, New Mexico. There were no survivors. Now it’s happened again. But this time, two creatures have emerged from the wreckage alive . . . One is a small being that is kind and benevolent, brimming with intense emotion and intelligence. The other, however, is an animal of remarkable strength and power. It has been brought clandestinely to our world with one sole purpose: the total extinction of all life on Earth. It is called the Destroyer of Worlds. Only the Event Group, the most secret agency in the history of the U.S. government, is prepared to wage battle against such a creature. The Event Group is a dedicated collection of the nation’s most brilliant men and women of science, philosophy and the military. Their difficult task: solving the mysteries of the past and uncovering the hidden truths behind the myths and legends propagated throughout world history. In doing so they protect America from past mistakes---and ensure that history’s errors will never be repeated. An act of war that started in New Mexico decades ago, and was covered up by another far darker organization, has been discovered by the Group at the same time as the new and seemingly identical incident threatens to wipe out the Earth’s population. In the desert wastelands of the American Southwest, a battle is about to commence as the two creatures set out to fulfill their own destinies among the human race. Led by the valiant Major Jack Collins, the Event Group wages total war in the heat-soaked sands of the desert landscape. Using the benevolent creature as an ally and resource, they combine forces with the powerful might of the U.S. military and prepare themselves for an epic battle against the most dangerous threat against human existence that history has ever seen. Event tells of an epic struggle between two worlds.

Writing Group Stories
Pat Ritter
During 2010 I fell into a hole with my writing. A notice in a local magazine advertised the Pomona Writers Group which meets each Tuesday morning at Pomona Community House calling for new members. I decided to attend. These weekly meetings have become a Godsend for me to reignite my writing ambitions.At the first induction to the group the facilitator handed out:‘Helpful Hints For Creative Writers’. ‘To live a creative life, we must lose our fear of being wrong’. Among other things were - keep writing – don’t edit on the run – when the inspiration stops and the pen rests that is the time to edit and rewrite. This is sound advice for any writer and finally words of wisdom:Practice, Practice, PracticeEnjoy, Enjoy, Enjoy. I hope you enjoy reading these stories.

What do an ex-con, a former drug addict, a real estate broker, a college student and a married mother of two have in common?

When I faced the biggest crisis of my life, God used my newfound Sisters to show me what it means to be just a sinner saved by grace.
