No such high drama, approaching that of Greek bathos, occurs in Carla Pacis’ novel for young readers, OCW, about a young boy’s search for his mother. All told, the novel’s plot is not so much the difficulty of being an overseas contract worker, as it is about the consequences of such a phenomenon for the family left back home.
