Vrs (short story)

Vrs was the twenty-first short story in the Short Trips anthology Short Trips and Side Steps. It was written by "Lwrnc Mls", and, uniquely, consisted of only a single seventeen-word sentence fragment, written with consonants only. It appeared on the very last page of the book, after even the advertisements for Big Finish Productions and BBC Books common to this range.
