Summary
:
It's the early 1990s in Glasgow, Scotland, and Stephen has been diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome. He moves slowly toward new goals and meets others like him, including Richard, a friend from school, and Carrie, a young woman bedridden for five years. Stephen soon discovers he has a talent for writing songs. Buoyed by tentative hope, he and Richard leave Glasgow in search of a cure in the mythic warmth and sun of California. As they float between hostels, sofas, and park benches, they discover the trip is life-changing in ways neither expected, and Stephen embraces a new-world reinvention that will change his life forever.
