Barnaby in Exile
by Mike Resnick
“Very good, Barnaby,” she says. “And what is this?”
“Kitten,” I say.
We go through the whole book.
“Where is Barnaby?” I ask.
“Barnaby is an ape,” she says. “There is no picture of an ape in the book.”
I wonder if there are any other Barnabys in the world, and if they are lonely too.
