Magic is missing

Magic is missingThe author makes a bold attempt to portray the confused state of mind of a woman who is past her middle age and is in love with a man who is much younger to her. The drug like effect of such a relation on the female protagonist is presented; the sense of elation and fulfillment on the one hand and the sense of guilt and her inability to extricate from its clutches on the other. However, in the absence of a story line, this work reads neither like a poem nor like a story. The format chosen by the author is a first person account like an entry in a personal diary. This failed to convey the magical effect of the relation which she intended to present. A climb down for an author who showed promise through her recent stories in this website.
