Toade and tale of venom and transformation
A fragmentary feature blends natural history notes on toads with a stream of observational prose about skin shedding in amphibians and venom effects. It includes digressions on toad appearance, odour, and predators, then shifts to a family scene with a questioning father confronting his son about peaches and a parallel obituary-like deathbed scene.
