Abstract
This story grew from my need to write about and explore the dynamics of families, the ways in which the disintegration of a family impacts the individual members and continues to affect them for years and even decades after. The focus of the story switches in each chapter, with the point of view cycling between five different characters in the Fisher family: patriarch Bart Sr., mother Lois, son Bart Jr., daughter Tracy, and Bart’s second wife, Josephine, who is in the throes of dementia. Most of the events in this novel take place approximately thirty years after Bart Sr. left Lois for Josephine and in the process exploded the family, I explore the relationship between parents and their children as adults, the relationship between stepparents and their adult stepchildren, the relationships of the children with each other – who would thrive, who would struggle, who would hold on to animosity, who would let it go and be the better for it. The process of writing these beginning chapters has been one of discovery. I feel I have only scratched the surface of what I might learn from these characters about love, about loyalty, about trauma and forgiveness, and about learning to live with the lives we have.
