The Meandering Tale of the Knockabout Boy
17 parts Complete MatureWindsor "Winnie" Curthoy is a nineteen-year-old selective mute with divorced parents. He talks only to the reader; otherwise, he communicates using a self-created form of sign language. He struggles with his mental health throughout the story and expresses his desire to take control of his identity, improve his life, and connect with others. The story delves into Winnie's past, including his relationship with his parents and memories of a high school friend who was bullied. Through a series of goofy, imagined scenarios, Winnie stumbles over humor, philosophy, worries, and more. He will either have to continue being an observer in life, or come to accept himself and his past and move forward with mindfulness and a lot of hard work.
