About
Book Details
Looking for a Deep Rose that may make Aditi’s grandmother feel better, the adventurers go to the coast of Devon in England. There they meet the little boy Grendel who lives under the sea, prowls around at night scaring others, can’t remember anything and doesn’t care about it. Re-casting ‘monster’ characters from the Beowulf story, the author wonders if what we see depends on how we see it. Do stories make you look at things differently? Could you be you today, if you didn’t remember who you were yesterday?
