Fragmentary Tale Of A Stranger Child And Household Aid

A narrator recalls a half remembered scene of a woman with a foundling child seeking care from kin and neighbors. The girl, small and somber with big eyes, urges for mother figures as milk and warmth are shared. The story shifts through digressions, recounting a rescue and emotional efforts in a flood of memory.
