This week’s story is not entirely fictional. It is based on my father-in-law’s childhood experiences in Holland during the war. The ducks would flash freeze and he and his brothers would take them home to feed the family amidst massive food shortages.

Fantastic read!
Thank you so much.
Loved how you presented this. Then the twist, like others I thought, at first he was freeing them!
Thank you
I love the presentation, and I like how this has real history to the piece. I think my grandfather mentioned something similar to me once but I can’t remember exactly.

Thanks Neelam
Very powerful little story. And I really like the format you use. Text plus image is great.
Thank you
I thought at first your protagonist was freeing them! Reading your explanatory note I see that this was based on truth – it must be quite a sight to see the birds flash-frozen and stuck in the ice.
Wow so vivid!
Thank you
