Spanning two decades in the lives of the generation that came of age in the 1960s, Friends and Marriages is a story cycle about a past – and a present – strewn with unfinished relationships. The men and women whose lives intersect in these conected stories are drawn away from the cities where they live to Mexico, to Greece, and into the hinterlands of Quebec and Vermont. There in the clear light of day, they find the confusions and regrets of their lives vying with the unhurried pleasures of the wilderness.
