THE MISFITS

The Misfits is a short story that explains the relationship between three people who do not fit in, who live on the sidelines, without following the rules, outside social conventions.

A starring trio, as opposed to the couple which is the social structure par excellence, having a relationship defined by themselves: loving, sharing, playing or just having fun without trying to find a specific meaning.
