A desperately critical narrator finds the seeds of his redemption in past episodes of abandonment.
Burnt-out copy editor Seamus Cullen is placed on leave in midlife, over absenteeism from his newspaper job. Invited to reflect upon happier days, he finds himself reconstructing euphoric binges he had shared with friends in his 20s.
As he immerses himself in the moods of these sessions, painting-in context and fleshing out dialogue, he begins to re-evaluate the relationships that produced them. Free on Kindle.
