'Brushwood Boy' Summary
The 'Brushwood Boy' unfolds as Major George Cotter embarks on a journey of self-discovery and adventure. From the hallowed halls of public school to the rigorous training at Sandhurst, Cotter's experiences shape his character and prepare him for the challenges of military life in India. Yet, beneath the surface of his ordinary existence, there lies a hidden realm – a dream world that beckons Cotter with its allure. As he delves deeper into this extraordinary dimension, Cotter encounters fantastical creatures, battles inner demons, and grapples with profound philosophical questions. Through this duality of reality and fantasy, 'Brushwood Boy' explores the complexities of human nature, the power of imagination, and the enduring search for meaning in life.Book Details
