Summer nights in California. A mysterious blonde. Drinking to sleep. Memories we'd rather forget. Times we failed those most important. Swimming in the cold waters. Birds sheltering from the storm. Existential dreams. The view from a prison cell. The warmth of a cat. Waiting for your father's truck. Perennial smiles. Portraits of red, black, and green. Christopher Landry's final poetic novel set in a world of fiction but accompanied by real events.
