(2) YA What does it mean to love someone? Hartnett explores the hidden places of the human heart in this poignant, bittersweet fable of a young boy, an old woman, and the strange, ethereal young man she loved. In addition to Harnett's masterful prose and keen understanding of human nature, the story's melancholy air of frustrated romance should prove alluring to teens.
