This allegorical novella delves unapologetically into the uncomfortable un realities of grief. Written after the death of the author's fiancée, The Boy and the Cave is accomplished, original, and so telling of grief in ways that are less often written about. In the distant memory of a long-lost village lived a boy named Kaub. Precocious, stoic and adventurous, Kaub is on the brink of his people's greatest test of manhood: to cross the high mountains that separate his village from the sea and retrieve a tooth from the Great Whale, said to hold the forces most essential to the boy's world. But Kaub's journey is not what he imagined. It takes him not over a mountain, but deep into a cave, and what he finds there will overturn everything he knows about love, life, death, and the future. The tooth Kaub seeks is guarded by a man who will stop at nothing to see the boy shattered and show him the true meaning of loss. The author builds a deeply-reflected piece on the raw scaffolding of his own trauma and emotion. This haunting debut by a new talent offers something so much more meaningful than the trite hope often given to those suffering from traumatic grief.
