Review by: S. A. Williams on Feb. 27, 2013 :
An excellent perspective on grief and loss that explores these themes in a refreshing way. "Jacob's Cross" is a short, but well constructed and complete story.

Introspective story on how we deal with death. I really enjoyed reading this story. It left me with some questions in the end, but I'm guessing that was the point. Excellent writing.
