   Summary

   How Eugene Finds Himself and Saves Lee (from Himself)

   What it says on the title?

   I really enjoyed this story but I couldn't accept that that's how it ends.

   Self indulgent fix it, is what this is.

    

   I love both characters exceedingly and I want to do this for them and perhaps for Burroughs for the wonderful gift that this was despite the pain it symbolized for him. My life will never be the same.

    

   This work has 4-5 main Chapters. Chapters 1-4 and an epilogue. Each chapter has like 3 parts.

   The book is basically done but in the process of serious editing. Posting as soon as I'm done with a section.
