The Same Language – a short story inside the Good Housekeeping magazine date November 1953.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The first paragraph:<\/em><\/p>\n

“The one thing I mind about this deal is being called another Grandma Moses. Not that I’ve got anything against Grandma Moses, but I happen to be six-feet-four and very male. I took up painting because a couple of years after the war I bought a mountian up in the Bershires from which on a clear day you can ser Vermont, Massachuetts, and New York. This got me. After I finished building a shack on top of the mountain, I bought some turps and linseed oil, and pretty soon I was painting as much as I was fishing. Winters I used to go down and work in a faactory, but I liked being along best, a bug I caught when shrapnel put me in a hospital for two years after the war.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This story is quite long and will be included in the magazine anthology to be published sometime in the next six months.
