I haven’t posted a short story about Park Extension for a long time. For those of you who don’t know, or need reminding (that’s how long it’s been since I posted a bit of fiction), Park Extension is a working-class neighbourhood in Montreal that has, for many generations, been a home for new immigrants. In the years I spent there as a child and adolescent, Greeks probably made up the biggest ethnic group. Most of the Greeks have moved on, although their churches remain.
I hope you like the story.
It’s titled Clothes Make the Man.

Don’t know why it showed Tigers 123 as my user name 😂

Mystery to me too! You’re hardly a tiger, and if you were, you wouldn’t be a beginner tiger, as the 123 suggests.

I enjoyed this immensely. I grew up in Park Ex long before you, but I love the way you wove your story of your father, the suits, Greece and Park Ex.

Hmmm. I’m not too sure about “long before,” or even “before,” but I appreciate your taking the time to read and comment. It means a lot.
