"A man walks away from his desk and disappears for weeks, only to return with no recollection of his wanderings. A married war veteran wrestles with depression and befriends a young woman. A rebellion turns bloody. A young artist studies the life and paintings of Vincent can Gogh. A schoolboy faces violence and antipathy at home. A group of lowlifes tease and cajole each other as they wait their turn to sell blood to survive." From back cover.
