Oblivion - Barry Grills - Bog

Bag om Oblivion

Oblivion (noun): The condition of being entirely forgotten. Richard Braddock, family man, corporate vice-president, lapsed journalist, encounters Derek Cavanaugh on the street outside his workplace one day. Derek, a lawyer and once his best friend, is now homeless. When Richard offers assistance he is rejected. As their friendship is renewed on the corner of an intersection in a major city, economic inequities and all, Richard begins to develop a rash. Is he allergic to work? His life? Or Derek's refusal of help? And why does he keep "zoning out"? What's the strange, toneless mantra he "hears" all day: EVERYTHING JUST LIVES HERE? Is he going crazy? Can he hang on? Does he even want to? Then his teenaged son, Kevin, mentions on Facebook that he is hearing it too: EVERYTHING JUST LIVES HERE. And Richard begins to see the light...
