Coming of Age stories

Free · 58 stories · 150 chapters

Fifty-eight stories about the moment childhood stops being someone else's job. A red-haired girl arrives when the orphanage asked for a boy, an eleven-year-old is left in charge of the family lighter while his parents drink below deck, and a boy on a marsh at dusk reads his whole family off five small stones. Growing up here is a task, not a feeling.
