A Short Stay in Hell is about a religious man who dies and discovers that the afterlife he believed in during his life on Earth is not exactly what he expected. He gets cast into a version of hell based on Borges's Library of Babel where he (and others in his same situation) are tasked with finding the story of their life in order to go onto a version of heaven. It is a task none of them understand at first, but they (and us as the readers) get a little taste of what 'infinite' actually means. Existential, haunting, beautiful, thought-provoking - this novella packs quite a punch.
