R.A. Lafferty Devotional Page




The Works

This is a list of all known shortstories, that Lafferty wrote. I allowed myself the liberty to give a short critique to each story I've read. Excellent is a story that I'd recommend to anyone. OK is a story a Lafferty fan would like. Lame are short stories, that are either really boring or just lesser variations of a recurrent theme.

You can now add your own comments to each story if you like, or read what other readers wrote.

About a Secret Crocodile

OK A media satire.

Used both "Secret Crocodile" and "Seven Day Terror" as basic material for a music-theatre workshop over the last years. Participants looked a bit weird after a week. The short song "Daggers soft like rubber" caught on ;-)

I think many of RAL's short stories are theatre stuff...well, movie stuff..well..
