Broken Ties

When his mother leaves Ged's world is torn apart.
He is ten years old when his mother disappears after an argument with a neighbour, Mrs Deans. Ged witnesses the incident and the memory stays with him.

Over the coming months and years he is left wondering why his mother left without a word, and whether he will ever see her again.

Ged grows up wondering about the past, and the things the adults never speak about but thankful for his Aunty Mim and Uncle Ted who step in to look after him, and thankful too, for the love and stability his dad provides.

Cand mama lui paraseste lumea lui Ged este sfasiata, are zece ani cand mama lui dispare dupa o cearta cu o vecina, doamna Deans. Ged este martor al incidentului si amintirea ii ramane. In lunile si anii urmatori, el se intreaba de ce a plecat mama lui fara un cuvant si daca o va mai vedea vreodata. Ged creste intrebandu-se despre trecut si despre lucrurile adultii nu vorbesc niciodata, dar recunoscatori pentru matusa lui Mim si unchiul Ted care intervin pentru a-l ingriji, si recunoscatori si pentru dragostea si stabilitatea pe care le ofera tatal sau.
