The Right Time to Fly
Have you ever felt, that your job is wrong for you? Do you think a career shift is too late? The protagonist Marcus in this short story experience both feelings, but mostly because of the influence inflicted by a woman called Suzy. The same woman is also the reason, why Marcus gets a new view of the world. This short story ?The Right Time to Fly? is written by Shirley Golden, who is a young American author, living in the UK.
The settings of this short story takes place in a landfill, which in Marcus eyes it is a rather hopeless place. Suzy has quite a different view of the landfill, she believes it is a matter of perspective. She finds beauty even in waste, where other peoples would just see some old junk, as seen in the following quote: (??Look.? She points to the side of the heap.

Imbedded in the tangle is a radiator halffolded, its corners point towards the sky. ?It?s like a pair of wings, waiting for release, for the right time to fly,? she says.? (page 11, line 112-115)).
