I love good prose. I was searching for some stories with excellent prose and decided to give short stories by Hemingway a try. Then I came across his six word short story.
"For sale: Baby shoes. Not worn"
This is excellence.
Like, damn.

      Interestingly enough, whether Hemingway legitimately wrote that story or not is inconclusive.

      I've know that story for so long. There are others like that called six word stories.
