It's the spring equinox and the time for another quarterly ebook. This time it's a short story by Sherwood Anderson (1876-1941).

"Departure" is about a young man leaving his small hometown to begin a new life in a big city. As he sets off, thoughts about the familiar people and places fill him with melancholy.

It’s a bittersweet story that I hope you will enjoy! As always, there are vocabulary explanations in the footnotes.
