In May 2016, Charles Yu published a short story in the New Yorker, Fable, in which a psychiatrist suggested to his patient to tell about his life in the form of a fantasy story. The man gives in to the exercise. And Charles Yu writes one of the most touching and fine stories you will ever read. A short story illustrated by Tom Gauld. This story can be read in English on the New Yorker website. On this site, you will also find an audio version of the text, read by Charles Yu himself.
