After Hemlock

By Gavin Bourke

In the midst of accelerating social change AFTER HEMLOCK depicts some of the central concerns of contemporary society-the place of ethics and religion, science, commerce and technology, history and the role of memory-as well as eternal topics such as the inexorable march of time, life, love, illness, death.
