The title story, Wild Child, is inspired by the true story of Victor of Aveyron, a child found in 18th-century France. The narrative follows Victor, a boy who has grown up in the wilderness without human contact. The story explores his "civilization" process under the care of Dr. Jean-Marc Gaspard Itard, who seeks to study and educate him. The collection was well-received by critics, who praised Boyle's storytelling and thematic depth. Readers appreciate his ability to blend historical inspiration with contemporary relevance.
