Exploration - Paperback

by Alan Fraser (Author)

Exploration combines intimate romanticism with erotica in at times heartfelt - and always claustrophobic - drama. John still hasn't got over his mother leaving him as a child. The Freudian implications of this, combined with the cracks in his marriage that can no longer be ignored, find him seeking companionship through an online pen pal. His advertisement for solace is responded to by Simone, a mother going through divorce and losing custody of her son. John and Simone find a connection: his reflection on the loss of her son and her reflection on the loss of John's mother. Will this reveal more from each other?
