The novel is the story of Sevigne Torrins, a character who is both a poet and a boxer. The narrative follows Sevigne as he sets out to make his way in the world, tracing his misadventures, both romantic and professional, from his formative years on the Canadian side of Lake Superior to the bohemian scene in Toronto and eventually as far as Egypt. Sevigne pursues a classic writerly dream, but the reality he encounters is darker and different from what he had envisioned. It is an ambitious and romantic story that explores the power of dreams, regret, and the life of an exposed soul determined to live to the hilt.
