Excerpt
"I believe that, at long last, in writing 'The Flight of Ikaros,' and titling it, re-naming himself in the process, Kevin found and named-by-name his chosen father, a figure out of Greek myth, a Renaissance-man-and-artist-as-god-figure too big ever to be believed; a creator-progenitor who could never hope to prepare his son for the temptations and pleasures and dangers and certain death inherent in his also-chosen, winged existence, between heaven and earth, mankind and the immortals."
