Indelible Acts

0 - Default Title
Description
The twelve stories in Indelible Acts are variations on a theme of longing - the unassuagable human need for contact for completion for that most fugitive gift of all: reciprocal love. Its characters' lives are thwarted dashed impassioned each in their own way immolated by hope. A queue outside a cheese shop leads to a thrilling infidelity; a crematorium funeral exposes a love gone sour; a foreign hotel room becomes a diorama of despair as physical sickness becomes a metaphor for incurable grief. In the title story two lovers confront their lusts amid the ruins of Rome; in 'A Bad Son' a young boy from a damaged home searches for some kind of peace in the newly fallen snow.
