Things look dim to old folks: they'd need have some young eyes about 'em, to let 'em know the world's the same as it used to be.
I enjoyed this classic - it is short, beautiful and heartfelt. As with any classic, it is slow paced and clunky at times, but I am learning more and more that sometimes we need to step back and enjoy the simplicity of reading beautiful sentences to connect us back to our past - ignoble as it was most of the time, it's ours to hold and reckon with.
Anyway, enough rambling. This classic moved me.
