Baba is born in a remote corner, sheltered from modern development. His father's job takes the family from town to town, and with each move, Baba comes to terms with his new life. He spends an idyllic childhood doing things at his own pace, bending the rules whenever he can. And then the unthinkable happens. Slow is the story of a boy who preferred to walk, when the world around him was gearing up to run. "Slow is a luxuriously sensual and provocative journey through life and death that examines the beauty and irony in the world around us." FourWord Reviews
