(4) 4-6 Translated by David Colmer. In an oblique yet intense story, a boy faces his rage for the lonely farmer who might become his stepfather. Ward and his friend Bernie kill the farmer's duck; the farmer kills Ward's dog; Ward carries the dead dog under his coat while seeking retribution. The audience for this Bergmanesque tale, a prizewinner in Europe, will be limited.
