I think I left too many people wondering what happened next in the story "Aunt Kelly." This continues the story which I was afraid to tell since it sounds so preposterous. It tells what happened to an only boy among so many sisters in a time when such things just didn't happen. Well, you decide.
Using the idea from the novel "The Blue Lagoon" by Henry der vere Stacpoole, this is the story of a boy and his little sister shipwrecked on an island in the Pacific between the Philippines and Indonesia in 1950. Book 1 consists of 10 chapters. It begins slow as it should, but later chapters may keep you wanting to know more.
This story carries on the saga of a boy and his little sister stranded on a Pacific island in the 1950s and beyond. They grow to adulthood and raise a family with only a glimmer of what life was before
A man reminisces about his relationship with his mother as he grew up from a little boy to a teenager. It is a tale that defies what is thought of as the norm. It is a situation that 'just happened.' Everyone involved was a decent person, but Freud would have had a field day with this one.
Was perusing an old copy of the Decameron by Boccaccio which is similar to the Canterbury Tales by Chaucer. People often outsmart themselves in those tales and it reminded me of a story with a comparable ending. You'll have to read it to compare.
This is a continuation of the story 'Contemplating Mother', but can stand on its own. A man reminisces about his mother and their strange relationship from his teen years to adulthood. There may be a lactation theme, but denial is the point of the story. Nursing persists only as an excuse to indulge in more intimate pursuits.
Age is relative. Contrary to the usual story of a young girl and an older man, this relates to the strange relationship between and older man and a much, much older woman. It also relates to what makes some people tick, and how denial may allow for things that could never be otherwise
Forced down in the high desert in a small plane, a man and his mother-in-law find themselves faced with the challenge of getting through the extremely cold night while awaiting rescue.
A man recounts his first time a long time ago when only a boy. The experience made an indelible impression on him which he always recalls with pleasure and appreciation for the educational school system.
