Spanning seven decades, Come Back, Shane follows one man’s journey as he reflects on the joys of the moviegoing experience.

WINNER
THE PAUL CAVE PRIZE FOR LITERATURE 2025
“There is so much joy to be had from reading great literature. Writing that holds my attention and provides surprises throughout. Writing that features believable characters and plots requiring little editing. Writing that takes the reader on a journey away from reality. Fourteen novellas were submitted to The Paul Cave Prize for Literature 2025.
After great deliberation, Come Back, Shane by Robert Weinberger is the clear winner. Robert’s writing is strong and atmospheric. His novella is a celebration of writing with really considered vocabulary and diction. I love the period setting, the knowledgeable historic content, the engaging style about cinema and romance set against the reflection and depression of the modern world.”
