Reviews

[Jon Sindell · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is the raw, difficult tale of a father and his estranged fifteen–year–old son in the woods. A critical reference is made to Wordsworth's "Ode On Intimations Of Immortality From Recollections Of Early Childhood." I won't rate the story since I am the author, but I thank you for your interest in it.
