Excerpt from Snowman Snowman
People live on earth, and animals and birds; and fish live in the sea, but we do not defeat the sea, for we are driven back to the sky, or we stay, and become what we have tried to conquer, remembering nothing except our new ?owing in and out, in and out, sighing for one place, drawn to another, wild with promises to white birds and bright red fish and beaches abandoned then longed for. I never conquered the sea. I ?ew at midnight to the earth, and in the morning I was made into a human shape of snow.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book unveils a unique perspective on humanity and the complexities of life through the observant eyes of a snowman. Created by a young girl, the snowman stands in her family's suburban garden, witnessing the intricate tapestry of human existence unfold around him. The author weaves a narrative that delves into themes of mortality, family dynamics, societal structures, and the human experience, all while exploring the contrast between the snowman's static existence and the ever-changing lives of the people he observes. Through the snowman's interactions with a "Perpetual Snowflake," the story delves into philosophical questions about time, change, and the nature of reality. The book presents a profound reflection on the human condition, inviting readers to contemplate the significance of their own lives and relationships within the broader context of existence. Ultimately, the snowman's journey of observation and self-discovery offers a poignant reminder of the fleeting nature of life and the enduring power of human connection.
