AbstractHistoryArchive Description
Miles summons his brother Nathan to a party but refuses to say why; Gary is pestered by the deceased Julian; Peter longs to place his hand on his sister's bare stomach; Miles' wife is enjoying life behind her black eyeshades, while Liza enjoys all that she can see of Nathan's wiry, eager form. Over the course of an action-packed weekend many people's lives collide, some disintegrate, others take on new and much more invigorating forms. (Back cover publisher's blurb).
