Darke

Dr James Darke has expelled himself from the world. He writes compulsively in his 'coming of old age' journal; he eats little, drinks and smokes a lot. Meditating on what he has lost he tries to console himself with the wisdom of the great thinkers and poets, yet finds nothing but disappointment. But then cracks of light appear in his carefully managed darkness ... An entertaining debut about the nature of a good life, and a good death.
