Winter Lyric

Összefoglaló

"An infectious little Gem" —Whispering StoriesElliot Stephenson is thirty-one years old, an out-of-work musician eking his way through life, haunted by an aimless past filled with alcoholism, psychotropic drug use, and missed connections with women. He isn't sure he ever made much sense to the world, let alone himself, and the only thing that ever made things clearer was writing, so he begins writing a book. He's been sober for two years, and for the first time, he's madly in love with a woman—Sarah Benton—and she seems to love him back. Sarah is his first love, but ten years younger, and reminds him of when his life had no limit to pleasure-seeking and living the night to the fullest—other than a wicked hangover. Elliot finally puts pen to paper, makes his hedonistic reprise with Sarah the subject, and gives us Winter Lyric—a story of his tender first love unfolding into a transformative synchronicity, and Sarah at the heart of it all. Elliot connects his entire life in Winter Lyric in such way that he is awestruck, even by the serendipity of his time with Sarah coming to an end, as inevitably as any first love does. "[A] meditation on all that is gained, and all that is lost, in every small moment, every seemingly meaningless interaction that passes us by, and it is told in a voice that is both profound and inimitable. [...] and contains more beauty and pain than should rightly exist in its brief pages." —From the Foreword by Neal O'Reilly
