THE SON WHO NEVER RETURNED

<p>&ldquo;Get out of the house.</p><p>It was the first time my father had ever been this furious with me. His anger burned so hot that he forgot I was only sixteen. Without hesitation he grabbed me by the arm and threw me out shutting the door on the boy I had been.</p><p>He was a man of hard lessons practical to the point of cruelty. If teaching his children required setting fire to the tenderness in his heart he did so without flinching. And when he wanted us to see the world&rsquo;s brutality he made sure we experienced it firsthand. But this time he had placed me in a situation where the lesson felt final&hellip; where the fall felt irreversible.&rdquo;</p><p>'The Son Who Never Returned' is an intimate journey through love longing and loss. It asks the questions no heart dares to answer: Why do some departures never find their way home? And how do you mourn someone who might still be alive?</p>
