With unshaken compassion and intelligence, Robert Chafe
weaves seven unforgettable stories within the frame of a single long-distance
love affair.
A boy grieving the loss of a friend finds himself cornered
in a stranger’s home. A young man learns the distressing secret behind his
father’s emotional distance. An elderly man resists evacuation while his
hometown burns to the ground. And a teenage couple find themselves seeking
escape in a collapsed sea cave.
Together, these remarkable crafted stories create on
compelling narrative as Chafe reveals our overwhelming desire to love and to be
loved- the optimism, solitude, heartbreak, and hope-and how sometimes we become
our own greatest nemeses. Experimental in from and eternal in its concerns, TWO-MAN TENT vividly captures our
consistent human yearning to cross the distance.
