    Summary

    He is neither Lee Harvey Oswald nor The Balladeer, but rather something or someone in between. He sees Czolgosz raising his gun and firing. He feels Guiteau's heartbeat pounding beneath his hand. He hears Booth crying on a barn floor. They are just as bright and vivid as the weight of the rifle in his hand and the pushback as he shoots the President of the United States, John Fitzgerald Kennedy.

    Some of it is blurry. Most of it is impossible. Either way, he is stuck in a carnival surrounded by a bunch of would-be assassins until the end of time.

    Summary

    In 2016, a 4 minute segment of Pulitzer and Tony Award-winning playwright Charles Kringas's infamous breakdown interview is uploaded to Youtube. Since Charley is 81 and notoriously reclusive, he remains blissfully unaware of this fact.

    In 2018, a Broadway revival of Musical Husbands and an off-Broadway revival of Take a Left bring the Kringas-verse to social media's attention. Charley's still dodging all the socials he can manage, but he can't dodge the grandkids in the family groupchat.

    Summary

    There’s a coat too many in Devon’s new hallway. Pink, tiny, liable to make any granny coo. “You have a kid,” Gemma says. She doesn’t know how to feel about that. “You don’t want kids.” She reconsiders. “Didn’t. Did you?”

    Devon looks like she’s seen a ghost, like she’d forgotten. “It’s been so long,” she says and her voice breaks.

    Or: things you don't remember.
