Description
This story was originally published in Day One, a weekly literary journal dedicated to short fiction and poetry from emerging writers.
Anna is an unappreciated, underpaid nanny for a wealthy family on the Upper East Side. Exhausted by her hours-long daily commute, her low wages, and the troubling dynamics she bears witness to, Anna struggles to keep her resentment toward her narcissistic, toxic clients in check. But when she starts to bond with Miles, her supernaturally empathic ten-year-old charge, this resentment begins to rub off on him -- with fatal results.
Like a poisonous love letter to New York City, Children Will Listen reveals how empathy may be the best weapon for destroying class lines.
