a book of short stories
to help fund schools for autistic children. I'm not finished with it yet but so far there are plenty of good stories. However, it's one in particular, of course, that I'm talking about.
Colin Firth
wrote the one I'm talking about. Seriously, is there anything that man doesn't do beautifully? Like, you know, sit there.
The book is
Speaking With The Angel
and the story is
The Department of Nothing. Here is a favorite passage:
"Lynne said maybe Lucien Lothair had put a spell on Grandma because she was giving away too many secrets. I said it's not a spell, it's just how old people always get. She said maybe it's always a spell."
OK, so, go read please. Pretty please? I really need to talk to someone about this.
Thanks.
