"Fireflies" is a Masterpiece within SUBURBAN METAPHYSICS

I have often taught Mr. Rindo's short story, "Fireflies", in my more mature high school classes, because, as far as I'm concerned, it is the most beautiful love story that I've ever read. The character development is richly effective, leaving me gasping at the end. (Incidentally, I've had the privilege of reading Mr. Rindo's unpublished novel, BREATHING LAKE SUPERIOR. I hope that, by now, some publisher has had the good sense to accept this novel for the quality that it reveals. It concerns the destruction that can happen when a parent falls off the deep end into religious fanaticism. This powerful work will haunt me until I die....in my cabin on the shore of Lake Superior.)
