In his death, he follows Crellis and witnesses his metamorphosis. The inspiration of the natural world moves Crellis into his journey and into developing his sense of responsibility for the natural world.Valley of the Heart questions our present way of living and the excesses that have placed further demands upon the Earth on which we depend.
