The Last Revision - Hardcover
Description
by Patrick Smith (Author)
Bill is ninety-nine years old when a young woman he barely recognizes returns a journal he lost decades ago-a small green notebook with a Snoopy sticker on the cover.
And the memories begin.
The Last Revision traces a life across continents and decades-from a childhood shaped by movement and uncertainty, through a hard-won coming out, years of solitude in New York City, and a late and enduring love. As Bill reflects on the life he has lived, he revisits the past from its imagined end.
Moving fluidly between memory and reconstruction, the novel presents a life as it might be remembered-assembled, reconsidered, and, at times, quietly revised. What emerges is a meditation on time, identity, and the stories we tell ourselves in order to understand a life.
