Perhaps my favorite short story of all time is "A Family Supper" by Kazuo Ishiguro. It should get more recognition as a masterpiece of contemporary gothic fiction--the dread, the understated family horror, the perfect ambivalence of the ending! magicbarrel.wordpress.com/wp-content/u... #shortstories

And you people call ME crazy.
Look at what your ambivalence and worship of money has gotten you...

The artist so deftly subverts convention through dialectical interplay of irrationality and ambivalence, challenging the minimality of postmodern sensibilities.
