ABSTRACT

Milo began life in a city, living with his parents in a harsh urban environment. He remembers all too well being reprimanded by his mother for getting dirty as a four-year-old while playing out in the streets near to his house, yet as his adult middle-aged self told me, there really was no option because in those days everything was filthy in a city environment. He remembered those early first five years, before his brother was born, as happy because of the exclusivity of his relationship with his mother, though he did not like the city environment.
