Loved this quote about the eleven year old daughter. Suppose I could relate all too well. “With a note of sadness in her voice, because no matter how vivid and all-consuming the book was, or how long, sooner or later she finished it, and was stranded once more in ordinaryness until she had started another.”

The Final Report is a will. Haller's Second Home includes the recurring character of Francis Whitehead and made me think of Wendell Berry somehow.

The Pilgrimage
The Patterns of Love
What Every Boy Should Know
“The Known world is not, of course, known. It probably never will be, because of those areas the mapmakers have very sensibly agreed to ignore, where the terrain is different for every traveler who crosses them. Or fails to cross them.”
The French Scarecrow Interesting little tale about false and real fears.

2nd Story - Trojan Women - Marital discord in the days before divorce was common, but how many times have I seen it, parents who want the children to be pawns in a game of divorce? Careful what you tell the children, they will see more than you guess.
