A Midlife Summers Night: the Window of Opportunity is Not Always Small Henri J. Lavoie

The window of opportunity is not always, small. For Larry Sweeney and his young friend, Jeff Walker, opportunities and time were a constant source of irritation. Living and working in a quiet Vermont setting the two men work tirelessly to fi nd ways of talking about their childhood. Always striving to confront the truth, they stumble on obstacles and are forced to step back and reevaluate the purpose of having a true and trusted friend. Unwilling to surrender to life's injustices they take risks in order to remain steadfast to their quest, and in so doing, they come to discover a better way to handle, if not avoid, a mid-life crisis. A Midlife Summer's Night both confronts and exposes the differences between inner confl icts and crisis, attachment disorders and friendships, experience and the truth. In the world of true human hardships, there is only one resolution; and it's not always in fi nding a friend who understands.
