In Search of the Glow: The Novella Edition

By Ron Simonian

THE NOVELLA EDITION

Peggy has spent forty years building a marriage, a career, and a life that should feel complete. Instead, the sixty-year-old television reporter has begun to suspect that something essential is missing.

Passion.

Her husband, Jason, is content with the comfortable life they share. Peggy is not. Her best friend Katie is navigating the humiliations and absurdities of modern dating, while Conner-a successful younger man with an emptiness of his own-appears to embody everything Peggy fears she has lost.

What begins as a search for renewed feeling soon forces Peggy to confront desire, aging, betrayal, and the terrifying possibility that a person can disappear without ever leaving the room. As four lives intersect in the shadowed corners of a hotel bar, each must decide whether passion is something to be recovered, pursued-or survived.

Adapted from Ron Simonian's full-length stage play, In Search of the Glow is an intimate, psychologically sharp, and darkly comic novella about marriage, longing, and the dangerous distance between being comfortable and being alive.
