. . . this decaying body, less human more animal, no longer alive, still breathing, an unbearable Weltschmerz. Here is a story of a woman and her efforts to extract herself from the unfailing reminders of life's bleakest moments. Storm Rolling Into Darkness captures the longing of a child, fidelities betrayed and an undeniable spirit relearning to love herself.A child loses her innocence, a burden charting a dispirited road to adulthood. Andie Burrows is a part-time university instructor and full-time cynic dismissing every day inanity by remaining distant and unengaged. She's falling, has been for a long time. That she drinks too much only complicates the few relationships she allows herself. Debased, ever-defiant, her chaos spiralling, Andie discovers it is her past that offers a way forward. . . . drizzle fell down the back window of the taxi fragmenting Seth into slivers of charcoal and light until no human form could be seen.
