November

Forty year old Zachariah Quine, deserted by both his wife and his ambitions as a musician, flees New York City and its fragmented, bohemian lives, seeking to "crawl back into the camp of the human tribe." His destination is London, where he stays with his expatriate brother and his "English" family and meets Anne, whom his brother describes as "a walking disaster, alcoholic, manic-depressive, accident-prone, kleptomaniac, just what you need right now." She crystallizes everything he yearns for, caught as he is between regret and desire, with only the illusion of freedom to sustain him.
