Winter Lyric

By Michael Whone

"an infectious little gem" --Whispering Stories

Winter Lyric is the emotional and poetic story of Elliot Stephenson and his relationship with Sarah Benton, two drinking buddies that suddenly become romantic partners. With a new found lust for life so profound he's not quite sure what to do with it, Elliot delivers a quirky love-manifesto for Sarah, documenting his recklessly entertaining fruition of sexual self-discovery. Elliot brilliantly weaves together a breathtakingly honest, and cleverly entwined story that fortuitously connects each hedonistic moment of his past and present to a bittersweet realization that life isn't about pleasure seeking, but that life's synchronicity and divine transcendence is the ultimate pleasure, that finds us.

A] meditation on all that is gained, and all that is lost, in every small moment, every seemingly meaningless interaction that passes us by, and it is told in a voice that is both profound and inimitable. ...] and contains more beauty and pain than should rightly exist in its brief pages. --From the Foreword by Neal O'Reilly
