Dirsek Çürütmek

A transcript is available. 

In this third part of the Neil McTaggart story, 18-year-old Neil arrives in 1920s Ontario, Canada, to live with his uncle Robert Jefferey — a firm but fair man from his mother's side. Neil, unable to read or write, begins adjusting to life in a deeply religious, structured household. This chapter explores the beginnings of their relationship as Robert gently steps into a fatherly role, and Neil begins to sense the stability, discipline, and quiet kindness of his new life.

At the dinner table, Neil meets his aunt and cousins for the first time. Set against the backdrop of rural Canadian farm life, this is a moving story of migration, growth, and learning to belong — especially for those starting again in a new world.
