Byron and Mortimer

Byron is a slightly rotund, bespectacled boy with a complex and often problematic imagination. Mortimer is his lazy, conniving black cat and semi-trusted sidekick. Over the course of the last fleeting days of summer on his family farm, Byron undertakes a journey to discover essential truths about the universe and about his own mind. A malevolent fox, a combative spirit dog, and a wise two-headed heron guide him along his path. Byron dives deep into the core of things and emerges refreshed and renewed, but not before his reality is shaken and his hidden fears are confronted.
