Publisher's Synopsis
A Novella: Brandon Anderson is caught in the grips of despair when he begins to chronicle his itinerant affair with Gillian, the youth whose beauty enamored him years ago. Drifting aimlessly, their chance meetings mesh into a panorama of desire, saw-toothed edges hacking at the boundaries of relationships, dark corners of attraction exploding in slow motion. In the recollections of Gillian that Brandon conjures destiny is questioned; whether true love is the thread coursing through their intimate engagements or if feelings are only the by-products of cultural patterns. A sense of estrangement sears between the lines, Brandon's experiences oscillating around idealizations of love and the flagrant betrayal his desire entails.
