A Drive in the Country

Graham Greene

First published 1954
Type Short Fiction
Length Short Story

A young woman runs away from home with her boyfriend. His fate is gruesome. Hers is much more pedestrian.

Tuck designates this as a fantasy. Although there are no overt speculative fiction elements there are definite dark horror events which possibly are a figment of the main character's imagination.
