| Publisher Description: Through vignettes that zip forward and backward in time, Dixon weaves together a complex portrait of the man's life, from the moments of his marriage to his later days where, struggling with his loss, he fumbles to find clarity and certainty in his writing. Through his characteristic restrained prose, Dixon explores what it means to be human, with themes of love, loss, and companionship. |
