The Lady and the Pirate: Being the Plain Tale of a Diligent Pirate and a Fair Captive
The Lady and the Pirate: Being the Plain Tale of a Diligent Pirate and a Fair Captive
A disenchanted man has withdrawn from the world of adult responsibilities, seeking peace in solitude. But when two boys embark on a pirate-themed adventure on his estate, they drag him back into the realm of imagination he thought he'd outgrown. Black Bart, once a dreamer himself, becomes their unlikely captain as they set sail across lakes and through forests in search of treasure and glory. Yet beneath the adventure lies something tender: a story about the masks we wear, the selves we abandon, and the dangerous magic of rediscovering who we were before life taught us to be careful. Emerson Hough writes with wry affection for the absurdities of make-believe and genuine insight into the human longing for innocence unburdened.
