After Twenty Years
After Twenty Years opens just before ten p.m. on a damp, chilly, gusty night. An unnamed policeman walks a beat in an unnamed neighborhood in a big city, and the narrator notes that the streets are mostly empty because of the weather and because of the neighborhood's typical early hours.
