George Crosby remembered many things as he died,
but in an order he could not control. To look at his life,
to take the stock he always imagined a man would at his
end, was to witness a shifting mass, the tiles of a mosaic
spinning, swirling, reportraying, always in recognizable
swaths of colors, familiar elements, molecular units,
intimate currents, but also independent now of his will,
showing him a different self every time he tried to make
an assessment.

A love story for things lost and restored, a lyrical hymn to the power of forgiveness.
