Overview

A Roadmap To Life's Enduring Passages

Reckonings, regrets, longings. Life's turning points. Sometimes redemptive, sometimes heartbreaking, these crossroads are familiar to us all. The yearning for a different path, a better ending, is uniquely human.

You Can't Get There From Here explores these pivotal moments. In Repossession, we meet a young man looking for closure in his dead girlfriend's apartment; You Again, Always introduces us to a couple coming together for one last time; and Strange Secrets Worth Knowing follows a man exploring a deadly path to a resolution. These are times when we're faced with the consequences of our choices and struggle to find a way forward.

Highly poignant and insightful with characters that resonate, this collection is an engrossing journey through some of the most painful, transformative experiences of our lives.
