“The Book of Goose”

 



I’m confused…two teenage girls growing up in a small village in France in the 1950s. Both peasants. One is able to continue her education, the other not. Simple lives. What could go wrong?


Boredom.


What if these two create an alternate world for themselves? Pushing reality to the limit. Using their imaginations to find happiness where none may exist.


Selfish.


Finding a way to enhance their lives, but at the expense of others in their village. Ultimately pushing one of them out of the “nest” they created for themselves.


Opportunity. Jealousy. Comeuppance. Change. Friendship lost.


I suppose it was a matter of time before the girls' experiences changed their relationship. What they wanted in life no longer mirrored their teenage desires.


Separation.


I’m still confused…
