Thin Man Summary
| Children fear the monster under the bed or the creature in the closet. But Victorian climbing boys, the poorest of the poor, have neither beds nor closets. What sort of monster would they fear? [Author Note: "Thin Man" was inspired by a pair of poems by William Blake, both titled "The Chimney Sweeper." The bits of information the editors mentioned about climbing boys struck me as both horrifying and fascinating. I read more on the subject and, after some research, came to realize these boys had at least one story to tell. Although the boys are fictional, their lives, their working conditions, and the dangers they face are historical.] |
