She didn't need hunters to rid the world of hungry wolves who coveted their tender flesh. Too many formalities. So, Little Red Riding Hood established an agency of
well-trained Little Red Riding Hoods. The young, attractive, and seemingly frail agents went for walks in the evening. When they caught a wolf, they brought him to the house codenamed Grandma, where he would come out with wrinkled fur, after they dealt with him. What a beautiful evening. The Little Red Riding Hoods went out to hunt. A gray wolf, with a wedding ring on his finger, is lurking about. Grandma, I caught one. We're coming, she whispered.
(Translated by Marius-Alin Lazăr / University of Bucharest, Faculty of Foreign Languages and Literatures, MTTLC, year II / Corrected by Silvia Petrescu, coordinator of the translations)Real Fiction is a collective project started in 2013 by Florin Piersic Jr. The concept of Real Fiction continued to exist as a Facebook group, after a volume of stories was published at Humanitas Publishing House. (In October 2021, the group has 7.275 members.) The authors write ultra-short stories, with the texts limited to 500 characters (in Romanian, so the length of the English translation might be a little different) - a flash-fiction exercise on a topic that changes every few days. The group's coordinators are Florin Piersic Jr., Gabriel Molnar, Răzvan Penescu, and Luchian Abel. (Drawing by Adrian T. Roman)
