octavia_cade 's review for:
The Sphinx Without a Secret
by Oscar Wilde
mysterious
fast-paced
A bit slight really - very short, and with an ambiguous ending. I will say, though, that it's nice to see a story like this in which hopeless nosy curiosity in a relationship comes from the man rather than the woman. Not that the secret (or non-secret) here rises to the level of Pandora or Bluebeard's wife; it's a very harmless mystery. The general theme of the story, however - if you go poking around in things that don't concern you, it may not turn out well for you - is similar. Just let people have their privacy, for goodness' sake.
