The work of fiction visits prevalent themes of middle-age burnout and mortality in America. For Generation Z, the novelette weaves in pressing issues of divorce, drug abuse, and self-harm.

Heavy contemporary themes hover in the background while a simple and easy to read story is being told. Ultimately, it's a story about people — how we relate to each other and ourselves, or not.

The novelette takes its time to develop multi-layered characters. In addition to the main character, Henry, the story focuses on two strong, but very different, women — Henry's new friend Jade and Henry's wife Mara.

Jade is a beautiful young Generation Z with suicidal thoughts. Together, she and Henry share their observations about life's authentic struggles — loneliness, pressures to succeed, fulfillment, and overcoming the past.

There are numerous references to the TV and film industry. Questions are raised regarding the entertainment industry's role in feeding the national psyche.

"A TV series drama tries to keep you invested by introducing one conflict after the next — one conflict per scene sometimes. It's like adding a lot of salt and other flavorings to food, keeping it tasty and increasing your appetite and thirst for more. But eventually, the theme of conflict after conflict gets old. That's often how Henry saw his life of working 'round the clock to pay the monthly bills, while also struggling to stay out of debt, but there had been no way out of this drama. Dying had its allure for Henry, but of course, ultimately it's not how anyone wants to exit the show."
