"Crossing the Tsangpo" by Gordie D (brief encounter) 9, 10, 10 http://www.dejanews.com/getdoc.xp?AN=385730460 --- http://www.qz.to/erotica/assm/Year98/14746.txt "Crossing the Tsangpo" by Gordie D (GordonD103@aol.com). http://www.dejanews.com/getdoc.xp?AN=385730460 --- http://www.qz.to/erotica/assm/Year98/14746.txt This is a story about a man traveling in a foreign country who has a brief romantic encounter with a woman who doesn't even speak his language. Although the sentence structure and syntax are sometimes a bit awkward, the story's simple style serves it well. We get the impression of an extraordinary event described in extremely ordinary terms, which is exactly what the author seems to have wanted.
