Alas! He called me by my name and introduced himself as 'Steinbeck'.
' Do you have any connection to John.Steinbeck? '
'Yes may be a far relative, I am L.L.Steinbeck, if you want in full
Lenin.Leon.Steinbeck.'
He brought me a large gunny bag which full of Idaho potatoes.
I said; 'Thanks a lot.'
'Why you suffocate here? ,
You should come to my state and engage in our farms.'
'Dear, I do not have the valid papers.'
Then he replied; ' Hey! Chum not to worry I have a good friend an old retired Coroner who will help you to get anytime a death certificate.'
Very surreal. And a bit disturbing. But very well penned as always. Kind regards, Sandra

This is a rather macabre piece, Nimal - written with a wry smile, I suspect. A curious introduction (via the brilliant Mr. Steinbeck) which always engages the reader. Love, Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
