New Releases from Segundo Press - Independent Publisher of Unique Voices

The latest by Homer Starkey, author of You Will Believe in Love and Houses. A darkly comic work of literary fiction about love, loss, and memory—and the improbable ways we learn to live with pain.

Heart Broke and Broken in EaDo

Description
His marriage is ending. Reality has become increasingly negotiable. And somewhere between memory, imagination, and what might still be real, he keeps speaking—sometimes to himself, sometimes to you.

He bickers with fairies, seeks advice from Edmund Hillary, and somehow still manages to annoy his long-dead parents. As childhood memories resurface and the boundaries between past and present begin to blur, he struggles to make sense of heartbreak, inherited wounds, and a future that no longer feels certain.

Written in dramatic form and intended to be read as much as performed, the narrative unfolds in fragments: remembered imperfectly and imagined vividly. Scenes shift without warning. Time bends. The audience is never entirely outside the moment.
