“Albert turned to Haydée. ‘At what age did the signora leave Greece?’ he asked. ‘At the age of five,’ Haydée replied. ‘And do you recollect your homeland?’ Albert asked. ‘When I close my eyes, I can again see everything that I used to see.

“He taught me to pay attention.” “To what? “Everything. The beauty of it all. The way the earth smells wet and raw when it’s first turned in the spring or after a summer rain. How the wind bends a field of tall grass into a moving sea. The creak and moan of trees, like they’re talking to one another, or to us if we listen. Everything about the river, the Alabaster. I grew up fishing it, swimming it, watching it flood the fields again and again. My father had great respect for that river.”
