Quiet, beautiful story. I really don't have a lot to add. I enjoyed everything about it, but mostly the quietness. I don't see that a lot in SF. Thanks for sharing this with us.
Brenda Cooper is now on my look out reading list.
A kind of perfection. I listened to to the audio, and that was kind of perfect too.
Really enjoyed the story. But, it was very sad.... on one hand yes, the boy left his father... but only because he felt that's what his father wanted for him. And in the end, because he tried to follow what he felt his father desired for him, he was unhappy.. and I think because of that - this story is one of the more down to earth SF stories i've heard. Certainly relateable.
