Twenty-Twenty Vision is a collection of interlinked short stories about hindsight and late middle-age regret subtly framed within the first year of the pandemic. Its also a portrait, an emotional map of the 1950s generation moving into the third age with a mixture of apprehension and regret. The characters make chastening discoveries one finds after a lifetime that shes a bullying victim, another draws up a curriculum vitae of her emotional life when there are no jobs left to apply for. The work focuses on a handful of characters Christine, Olivia, Bernard, Freddie, Triona and Eva as they revisit their past and grapple with late-life perspectives. The overarching narrative is connected by character and situation, and united in theme, to form a tapestry of late middle-age reckoning.</p>...7190366Twenty-Twenty Vision170189https://www.gandhi.com.mx/twenty-twenty-vision-9781843519423/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/7202351/image.jpg?v=638853798078970000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20259781843519423_W3siaWQiOiI5Y2RmYWE1OC02OGNiLTQwZGItODdlMy00YzQ2M2MxMzRiNzYiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjE4OSwiZGlzY291bnQiOjE5LCJzZWxsaW5nUHJpY2UiOjE3MCwiaW5jbHVkZXNUYXgiOnRydWUsInByaWNlVHlwZSI6Ildob2xlc2FsZSIsImN1cnJlbmN5IjoiTVhOIiwiZnJvbSI6IjIwMjUtMDYtMTNUMDE6MDA6MDBaIiwicmVnaW9uIjoiTVgiLCJpc1ByZW9yZGVyIjpmYWxzZX1d9781843519423_<p>Christine Beckett is faced with some home truths when her best friend, suffering from dementia, decides after a lifetime to be honest with her; Olivia Fletcher has an epiphany at a vaccination centre about a man who has loved her for decades; Bernard Travers revisits an unlikely romantic interlude with the mother of his teenage pen pal that has sustained him for 40 years.
