A family heirloom with a dangerous legacy
A rifle passed from one generation to the next links family inheritance with the possibility of sudden violence. Gary Paulsen’s short novel centers on a tragic accident and considers how an object made to fire can carry destructive potential, even before anyone chooses to use it. The story’s subject is the relationship between firearms and human responsibility, framed through the consequences of a weapon moving across generations. A reader’s guide is included for further discussion.
