a sometimes lyrical mystery set in a time of loss and longing

Gerald Conway’s newly discovered 1946 journal (consisting of 60 entries and 60 images) recounts the bombing of a train station during a nationwide railroad strike. Conway rationally attempts to identify the target and the bomber but his journal takes on noirish qualities as he becomes unsure of even the nature of the bombing.

This is a mixed-media novel that takes its cue from post-WW2 America, a dizzying period marked by fear of the other, an explosion of imagery, the growth of spectacle, and the consequent loss of any certainty about reality … the roots of contemporary America.
