The time is 1971. The place is Los Angeles.
There has been an earthquake in Sylmar,
and Dennis Murphy and Rufus Blue are
working on a highway crew to repair the
freeway. The line of jobs Murphy and
Blue have held and lost -car-wash boys,
carpenters, stuntmen stretches over twenty
years and across a shared landscape of wives
and ex-wives, distant growing children,
drinking evenings and other women. They
have lived as if each day is new and untied
and unblemished by the last, as if they haven t
left tracks. Believers in the California Dream,
they wait for the weather change that will
bring success at last.
But the change hasn t come. In Southern
California one day follows another, the same
in its youthfulness and its erotic charge, its
blistering fight, its constant sense of promise.
Until now, for reasons they don t understand,
Murphy and Blue find that their fives are
definitely shifting.
In his tremendously powerful short novel,
John Sacret Young has created a classic
portrait of two men trapped in their own
version of our collective dream. Spare and
rich at the same time, his is an original voice.
The story he has to tell is gritty and essentially
American and profoundly moving.
