Seventy-two-year-old August Brill is at his daughter's house in Vermont,recovering from a car accident.When sleep refuses to come, he lies in bed and tells himself stories,struggling to push back thoughts about things he would prefer to forget - his wife's recent death and the horrific murder of his granddaughter's boyfriend,Titus. August imagines a parallel world in which America is not at war with Iraq but with itself.In this other America the Twin Towers did not fall, and the 2000 election results led to secession,as state after state pulled away from the union,and a bloody civil war ensued.As the night progresses,August's story grows increasingly intense.and what he is so desperately trying to avoid insists on being told.
