    About this ebook

    An offbeat, lyrical drama about how our hopes and dreams can be thwarted by the choices we make - and by the ones we don't make.
    Ella's got a project. After ten years she has completed her piano concerto, and now she needs the help of Liz and Beth to get it performed. But first they've got some history to negotiate, and some old scores to settle.
    'a complex, slippery study of psychological crisis... poignant and roaringly funny' - The Times
    'an astonishing piece - witty, emotionally raw and deeply affecting - that leaves you gasping at the imaginative ingenuity of the dramatist's central conceit... exceptionally touching and ingenious' - Telegraph
    'a strong, beautiful, haunting play' - Sunday Times

      In days gone by, it might have been said that Lev had had a vision, that he had been struck from his horse by the voice of God and seen the error of his ways. As it was, people said that he had gone a bit nutty in his old age, though it was unanimous

      My brother Eli and I are lying on the couch, both of us nearly asleep, Eli’s toenails gently kneading my neck. I’m raising my throat to their sharpness, wanting him to press in, when from the next room we hear chimes. Then two clangs. Then: “Hello?”

      After “The End”

      Oct 10, 2022

      I walked down the road with a hunched back and a wet cigarette in my mouth—the fire had died a while back. My hands were tucked into the pockets of my jacket, and my hair fell over my face, limiting my sight. But I wasn’t really seeing where I was go

      Had Taylor sat here, or over there? I glance round the café. Mats on the floor, low tables, bamboo walls. Succulents flow from hanging baskets, swaying in the warm breeze from the open terrace. The air is thick with rice, fried oil and the sweet butt
