Review of 'The Human Comedy' on 'Goodreads'

"You know, I didn't know kids had mothers and fathers until I went to school and heard the other kids talk about them." Tobey laughed with embarrassment. "I couldn't understand it," he said. "I thought every man was in the world alone—the same as me—to start out all by himself. I guess I felt bad for a long time, after I found out. It made me lonely. I mean it made me lonelier. Maybe that's the reason I like to sing. You don't feel your loneliness so much when you're singing."
