This article by Andrew Solomon on the New Yorker – about Adam Lanza's father reckoning with his son's actions and what led up to the Sandy Hook tragedy.

later notation: As this video went viral, many felt duped that it was a piece showcasing Wren's collection and that the people were actors and models.
