A Guide for Adults

When Parents Die

Rick Dresner is spending the summer with the Romero family, who live in a barrio in the hills of Santo Domingo, Mexico. He'll help them build a house on their land, and in return, they'll provide room and board and help Rick improve his Spanish. But the construction project turns out to be a lot tougher than Rick had imagined. Language and cultural differences lead to awkwardness and misunderstanding, especially when he falls for a rich American girl from a very different part of town. In this new twist on the classic fish-out-of-water story, it's a middle-class white boy who's out of his element and must change and grow to adapt to his surroundings.

Using Robert Frost's poem "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening" as a gateway, E. J. Myers enters the forest realm simultaneously in its tangible and intangible dimensions. Why do we find woods alarming? The "otherness" of forests is often what frightens us. As Myers notes, however, it is precisely this otherness that makes the woods so rich, strange, and powerful. He draws from sources as disparate as C. G. Jung and Immanuel Kant, as well as poets and anonymous tellers of fairy tales, to portray the forest landscape as a source of strength and wisdom. The woods are truly "lovely, dark and deep," but therein lies the source of their true worth.
