Desertion

There is a way about brothers and there is a way about children. There is a way the young see the world as if the world is new and fresh and a place of magic. Sometimes all that matters is that you have someone to share it with, who understands, who sees as you see.

Desertion is a story about reality, childhood, adulthood imagination, and growing up. It's about possibility, hope and loss. It's about two brothers and a man in the forest and the places where lies meet truth.

And as always, it's about where the lines lay.

"We're in... territory [of] mystery and mysterious places... We and the characters seem to move across boundaries, real ones involving the landscape, and emotional ones, where the lines between dream, fantasy, and reality get blurred... This story will stay with me a long time." -Leslee Becker, Author and Professor.
