Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Love conquers all, people say. But when love goes wrong, it can wound and sometimes the wound just will not heal.A man returns to his old hometown seeking peace. But an unexpected sexual encounter with a teenage boy sends him back to the city he'd fled. Yet he still continues to be haunted by what occurred there. Memories arise-memories long since buried, though never deep enough-of another hometown boy who'd been his first love. It was love of a kind-heated and erratic as the boyish blood behind it-that must leave its mark. Just how much of a mark the man is about to discover during a snowy winter's night of rooting through old things and even older regrets.Intermezzo, the continuation of "In Hospital" a story that appeared in Mr. Frary's inaugural collection, An Omen in the Bone, further explores a theme central to both works: What happens to a life when the past refuses to stay.past?
