Doyle's inspiration to write is from his own son. His son has a heart condition from the day he was born. This drove Doyle to write how life can either leave in an instant or be a long lasting life. His purpose was to inform his audience to understand how living life can be either very quickly or very long lasting by revealing the two examples of the tortoise and the hummingbird.]]> 2020-09-16 16:32:49 UTC https://padlet.com/dcastillo5072/ymzmnjemw58cq82n/wish/752311519 dcastillo5072 https://padlet.com/dcastillo5072/ymzmnjemw58cq82n/wish/752311524 Brian Doyle was an author of many essays and novels.  Joyas Voladares is the lead piece in a collection of his essays titled One Long River of Sound: Notes on Wonder.  Brian lost his battle to brain cancer at the age of 60 in 2017.
