Description: "On the outskirts of Fairbanks, six-year old Robbie meets a mesmerizing girl his own age, and together they explore the mysterious woodland surrounding their homes ... Told as a parable, and vividly observed, Too far is a ... story of an end to innocence that captures the triumphs and follies of the child's imagination as it struggles to remain boundless and free."--Jacket.
Notes: This project is integrated novel and music. The 12 tracks evoke 12 scenes from the story--the children's experience of the forest that their goddess, Dawn, remembers. Dawn remembers moments with a particular quality, so we hear those moments as opposed to the whole smash.
