And They Walk On

Kevin Maillard

After his grandmother dies, a young boy wonders where she has gone and imagines her doing familiar things, from shopping at the market to tending a garden. He wants to share the stories of his day with her and notices reminders throughout her house: items by the bed, shoes on the floor, and the scents of her cooking. Memories of eucalyptus tea and grape dumplings help him hold on to her presence as he works through his loss.
