An Australian story about the life of someone who began unwanted and ended up a beloved icon. So don't believe me, neither did his son until he died. I threw in some science fiction critique and some sex to be different
The old man had searched in vain for a special "something" that had eluded him for most of his life. Now, at the end, that most special of all human experiences was finally offered to him. Not all the pertinent tags have been displayed. To do so would take away from the impact of the story.
