Alle Ego

by Glynnis Fawkes

Alle Ego means “good friend” or ‘other self” in ancient Greek. This is a middle chapter of a book-in progress (although it reads as a stand-alone story) and is a memoir of an art student’s adventures in Greece. The good friend acts as a spark for questions about a love affair with a fellow student in Boston.
