Linkage — a series by Jack Green

A Linkage Story
This is a fuller version of my poem 'Young and Old' as seen from the young girl's point of view.

A Linkage Story
This is a bit of the back story of how an old man came to breath his last, clasped between the thighs of a young girl.

A Linkage Story
The Waiter's Tale sheds light on the life of the Chevalier and introduces characters pivotal to the story arc(!). The story contains a lot of travel and fornication, although much of the latter is noises off so to speak. There are also gobbets of history, music, and film talk. Threading through the tale is what could be considered a coming of age story. Judge for yourselves, although the first two stories in the Linkage series (both very short) will need to be read to make sense of this story.

A Linkage Story
He spent twenty years in the French Foreign Legion, many of those years alongside The Chevalier. He has spent twenty years in Civvy Street, many of those alongside The Chevalier. The Comrade’s Tale allows us a closer insight into The Chevalier but the Comrade is an interesting character in his own right. There are not too many Frenchmen who support Accrington Stanley Football Club.

A Linkage Story
Join the Legion and see the world. Travel to exotic places. Meet interesting people. And kill them! In Part 2 of the Comrade’s Tale Philippe Soissons does exactly that. He learns more about the Chevalier, and himself, deals out and faces death, meets and mates with many females, acquires new skills and copes with the guilt he bears. Eventually he faces life outside the legion. His story, like life itself, has ups and downs, light and dark, laughter and tears. And consequences.

A Linkage Story
Life after the legion is no picnic but with The Chevalier as his companion and friend Philippe makes his way through the civilian jungle relatively unscathed but when it seems his dreams are about to be realised it all goes pear shaped.
