My Husband’s Tuesdays
by Hélène Vandermeer
For six years he disappeared every Tuesday. I thought I knew my husband. I was wrong.
Six years is three hundred and twelve Tuesdays. Three hundred and twelve times Thomas comes home at a quarter past eleven and says “I can't tell you” — looking her straight in the eye. One Tuesday in March, Clara follows him for thirty-seven kilometres. What she finds behind a door is not a mistress: it is thirty-one people, twenty-six of whom must not be found.
