The Labyrinth of the Faun

Pan's Labyrinth

Elke Maasbommel

That's what the books said, and didn't their tales feel so much truer than what adults pretended this world to be about? Only books talked about all the things adults didn't want you to ask about- Life. Death. Good and Evil. And what else truly mattered in life.

Children do notice those things, for all they can do is to watch - and hide from the storms the adults create. The storms and the winters.

“You're getting older. You'll soon see that life isn't like your fairy tales."

Vidal couldn’t see the Faun at all. Perhaps his own darkness made him blind to too many things. Perhans he already believed in too much grown-up nonsense to have room to see anything else. It mattered little.
