DEAR BRUTUS

J.M Barrie, Kymm Zuckert

Legend says that a magical wood appears on Midsummer's Eve, and if you enter it, you may just find out who you would have been had your life taken a different turning. On one mysterious night, eight strangers go into that wood, and find out. J.M. Barrie, renowned author of Peter Pan, tells us the story of their "might have been"s.
