Absolutely beautiful story, this is one i'll have to come back to in order to fully digest.
The repeated themes of the flood, rain and river, the horses, the cancer, the feeling of being so nearly done with a horrific ordeal and the silent acceptance that only time will help it pass, the solemn and short conversations with your father as you watch him wither, it's all so well crafted.
One of my favorite tales I've read in months. The once in a century flood is once in a century tale, well done 😁
