Or perhaps I should have called this one "where the red fern groans." Suffice to say I don't like this introduction at all, and I have very little objectivity to spare for this one. XP My biased opinions are going to get me in trouble one of these days. That said, I would like to go on the record to say that framing sequences can be used to great effect, and I think that if this particular opening hadn't taken so long to get to the point, then it would have been a much better introduction to the story I was promised, then it wouldn't feel so much like a doorstop I have to shove my way past to get inside. And I do like this book, even if it makes me cry. It's worth a read, for sure. Just... skip the first chapter. :) As usual, background music for the analysis portion of the episode was provided by the talented AShamaluevMusic.
