    Summary

    Brad has had a date written on a scrap of paper in his wallet for over a year and it's a date that he intends to keep. A journey myth of sorts – Brad sets out across America, pausing at various points across the way. What he can never really know is this: that he is not the first man who came home from the war to make this kind of journey. His path criss-crosses with those of three other men; Joe Liebgott who doesn't know where he's going, Tunny Clarke who doesn't really know who he is and Robert Leckie, who's struggling with what he needs to leave behind. It's a much a story about America as anything – a story about distance and how you live with it...a story about what it's like to come home and find a country that big waiting to be crossed. And nothing ever really changes.

    Summary

    He paints your eyes with glitter and glamour, lets you wake up in the morning to new scars and an empty bed, fucks you over so hard you’re still aching days later. In the half-light of a fire in an alleyway trashcan his throat glimmers red, white and blue, and sometime later that night, he tosses a razorblade in the air and doesn’t wait for it to come down. She applies makeup like war paint; or maybe she always did, and you just never noticed. You were never all that good at growing up, anyway.

    Summary

    Will would've gotten up to find the remote, but his spot on the couch was empty. It'd been empty a lot lately. Tunny had long since given up saving the spot, in favor of not having to hold his head upright.

    The one where they have largely unexplained (and unexamined, for the boys' part) supernatural powers.

    Or maybe he’d been thinking about this last night after Will fell asleep, about how they had the whole day free with fuck-all to do. Maybe he’d been thinking about it all week.
