So Long, See You Tomorrow by William Maxwell - rerun
Backlisted
The So Long Seed Tomorrow Thing
Maxwell deconstructs what it is to be who we are. He's speaking about boys, he's speaking about whether they are part of home or not. Having taken away the dog, take away the kitchen and smell of something good in the oven for dinner. Take away the chores that keep him busy from time to time until they sit down for supper. His work clothes are still hanging on a nail beside the door of his room, but nobody puts them on or takes them off. Nobody sleeps in his bed or reads the broken back copy of Tom Swift and his flying machine. It's beyond genius. I know more.
