A novel of heartbreak and love
In the sadness of life, love is a constant that tears at us and promises peace to those who find it. After an abusive father's violence tears a young boy's family apart on Christmas day, the boy throws himself at love to heal the damage: to retrieve it from his abusive father, to ensure it for his disconsolate sister, to share it with his best friend, to protect it from those who despise his sort, and to be truly in it with one man.
But love does not serve willing hearts docilely. It wounds the boy quick and slow when pressed - as a teen, as a college-aged boy, as a young man, and as an adult. As the boy, and then the man, parry for the right to peace; love fights back; wounding him whenever his advantage runs high.
Through five, interwoven threads spanning 30 years, the novel discloses the experiences, thoughts, and feelings of this hurt yet hopeful man as he seeks to quiet his soul.
