The Centaur

📒 Psychological chronicle and tragic comedy fuse in this story of three days in the life of George Caldwell, a small-town high-school teacher, and his fifteen-year-old son, Peter, an aspiring artist. Caught up in their imagined existences, the middle-aged man and the teenager straggle to make sense of the real world, which is also the world of Olympus, with its gods and nymphs and commonplace marvels.
