The Grass Beneath His Feet

The story revolves around a boy whose profound fascination with nature and simple joys, like fishing and enjoying fried perch for breakfast, sharply contrasts with his eventual fate on death row. This juxtaposition raises questions about how innocence can lead to such a dire outcome, exploring themes of curiosity, the loss of innocence, and the harsh realities of the justice system. The narrative delves into the transformation of a meticulous character from a carefree childhood to a life marked by tragedy and consequence.
