... ...
Doctor Carver's job is to see to not just the health and well being of the boys in his care, but to see that they grow to be productive members of society. So many abandoned boys slip through the cracks and become good-for-nothing hoodlums and criminals just like their parents. How does one ensure they grow up free of evil temtations?
Fortunately the good doctor knows precicely how to ensure exactly that.

Cainanite contributed a good deal to this story, as well as pointed me in the direction of another movie for inspiration/theme. Please include him if you liked this. Thank you, Cainanite!

Looking forward to the future chapters!

I love love love the story. But did John Kellogg really write those words? Who would have thought that the guy who invented something as wholesome and American as Corn Flakes was such a wacko. Anyway I'm looking forward to part two.

Looks like a good start to what I hope will be a long series.

Beautifully written with an engaging back story. I'm very curious to see how it develops.
kristoff - 2015-02-23
Thanks! Enjoyed it very much. Would like to see more. Of course, I am always a sucker for just about anything you write. Write me love notes, Ok?

I want to read more of this, hope it's going to be a long series. For me circumcision, particularly radical circumcision and castration,are the most erotic of subjects.
But one must always remember that it is all fantasy!

Hits several of my fantasy's. Well written and looking forward to the rest.

Well!
What can I say about Paolo's literary skills that it hasn't said before?
It's just mesmerizing, enticing and provocative specially on an ardent subject as Circumcision.
Paolo - 2015-06-25
Thanks, Edagar, but it may be a while before you see any more installments.

Fantastic writing.
Really the characters could walk right off the page and into my house!

Cannot wait to read the next part of this one. The addition of Lee (or is it Li?) was inspired. It really sets the historical narrative. I can't wait to see what happens next.

Okay, first things first; you need to be told that your quality of writing is awesome. I have volunteered to edit some stories on another site, and while most are technically well written, few have the overtones you manage to include.
Further to that, check out the voice you are using this time; I've NEVER seen you immerse your stories in such a different tone. You are writing this as if it was written 'at the time', and your word selection and phrasing is just a total joy to read.
This is not to take away from the fact I just love the subject matter. I normally prefer modern tales, but this one, the way it normalizes castration (and circumsicion... trust YOU to make me start to like a whole new interest!) in an era so close to today that it feels recent that the whole subject is dealt with in a way that there is no 'suspension of disbelief' required for me; it just reads as if it happened.
And there is no higher praise I can heap than that!
... other than to send you the biggest, hugest, most heart-felt THANK YOU for returning to writing. You owe this board nothing, you have every reason to NOT submit a story for many reasons, but here you are.
I thank you.

Many thanks! This subject is close to me as a balm for the soul...
Cainanite - 2015-03-10
So glad you are continuing this story. The relationship between Carver and Fairchild is really sweet and touching, even amidst the medical horrors of the rest of your story.
It is hard to imagine that people actually thought this way, once upon a time. Your fiction is SO close to the historical reality that it is shocking. You have a real way with a story and writing realistic characters.
kristoff - 2015-03-11
As usual, up to your enviable standards. I have the preliminary copy of IV. Anxious to see even more!
Valery_V - 2020-10-14
He is deeply grateful to the website which allows me to read your works.
Cainanite - 2015-03-29
I just love this story SO MUCH! People don't realize just how true to life this story actually is. This isn't a story about things that never happened in America. This is a story about what ACTUALLY happened in America, and all around the globe at the time in history in which this story is set.
The characters and setting are fictional. What happened to the boys and the reasons it was done are not. Historical fiction this may be, but the emphasis is on the HISTORICAL. People living today have forgotten so much of what was "normal" less than 100 years ago. This story reminds them.

Tx mate !!
Valery_V - 2020-10-14
I'm shocked!
Really Cainanite is right?
Valery_V - 2020-10-14
By the way, vesal_mas - "Tx mate!!"
- Reminded me Teal'c from "SG1".
But, can be just at me the roof goes...
Cainanite - 2015-04-12
Good heavens I love this story, Paolo. I think this is a masterpiece.
vesal_mas - 2015-04-14
More than a masterpiece!
Real literature !
Tx, man !!
Valery_V - 2020-10-14
He completely agrees!
bella - 2015-05-21
another great chapter, thank you
wrangler2c - 2015-05-23
Great Story
Paolo - 2015-06-18
As this is an ongoing "serial" style story, I just wanted to let readers know that it's taking a long hiatus. Possibly very long. It's not like you've been left hanging, at least. Thanks to all 16 of you.
Valery_V - 2020-10-14
And I write from the FUTURE!
blondejock69 - 2015-08-31
As always an excellent chapter.
Valery_V - 2020-10-14
Very touchingly.
kristoff - 2015-08-10
Just read it a second time. Thanks!
ylpb7508 - 2015-08-11
Wonderful story. Each chapter keeps getting better and better.
Paolo - 2015-08-11
Thank you, ylpb. There is more to come. Your comments keep it going!
Jesus - 2015-08-12
Great story. Each chapter seems better than the last.
blondejock69 - 2015-09-02
this one made me cry
Valery_V - 2020-10-14
I am delighted!
Jesus - 2015-08-15
Great alternative history. It's only slightly off what is taught in our history books, much of it, much more than most would think, is real. I appreciated the references to Kellogg and to the Better Baby contests. The castration of institutionalized boys, of course, did happen in several states, though not quite in the numbers that you've created in Blue Creek.
Alternative histories have always been one of my favorite types of fiction and this is one of the best yet.
Paolo - 2015-08-15
Thanks. Glad you liked it, and thanks for your input.
Valery_V - 2020-10-14
Yes... Horror!
Jesus - 2015-08-23
ANOTHER CLIFF-HANGER!?!?! The story only keeps getting better. I hope we don't have to wait long for the next chapter.
kristoff - 2015-08-23
As usual, keep us wanting for more! Breaking in some new territory, especially for the times!
Paolo - 2015-08-23
Thanks, guys. It's a pivotal chapter. Something exciting in the serial had to happen. Stay tuned.
Valery_V - 2020-10-14
Very interestingly. I am intrigued.
