   Fathers

   A Literary Anthology

   by Andre Gerard

   Memorable Quotes by Andre Gerard:

   “As Telemachus learns <in The Odyssey>, 'It's a wise child who knows its own father,' and it's a rare child indeed who hasn't been troubled by trying to make sense of its father, in the flesh or in the spirit. We don't, it would seem, have to be Hamlets to be troubled by the ghosts of our fathers, living or dead.”

   “With the possible exception of 'mother,' 'father' is the most burdened word in our language, containing within it a bewildering profusion of emotions, experiences, understandings, and misunderstandings.”
