A great American city is destroyed under mysterious circumstances, wasted by explosions and fire. A lone survivor wanders, lost, among its ruins. Out of a whirlwind of language appear the images of a boy, a youth, a middleaged man exploring lives he might have led had he made different choices in early manhood, of an old man in a hospital, paralyzed and dying and of a young girl, a young woman, an old woman, alone, abandoned, longing, in an everyrenewed and everfrustrated search for love. Christopher Bernards magnificent debut novel, anticipated by his literary admirers for more than eight years, offers a portrait of a society in turmoil, at war, divided and afraid, a world driven from its moorings, in quest of significance in a chaotic time a world like our own, inhabited by people finding what purposes they can, in the creation of meaning out of the chaos of experience.
