I wanted to bring this back to the top (after 3 years!) and actually talk about Leaf by Niggle. I think there are more people here now that have read the so called "minor works". So...

The story was mysterious. To be honest, when I first read it I hadn't a clue as to what was going on, or rather what the point was. I did, however, become completely absorbed in Niggle's painting. I love the way it was described in such detail.

I'm curious as to what others think about the relationship between Niggle and Parish in the end.

Anyway, this is a start, and I hope others will carry this on.
