The Bottom of the Garden Robin Morrison

Two brothers, Adam and Zac experience their first relationships, but then have to learn to manage without them. Their first love leaves its imprint on what follows, as they grow up, facing new kinds of reality. Adam goes to Pakistan and Afghanistan where he meets Charlie, but then she is taken. Zac goes to work in Ghana, but then meets Adele Oya. Can they trust themselves to what a new relationship might mean, when the shadows cast by the horrors of real life reach so far into their lives? Adam tries to write a 'history of conflict' but then has to live with it. Zac tries to do good in Africa, but then has to question motives and outcomes. So, are the dark questions and realities the real framework for living, or just unfortunate exceptions along the way? What is waiting down there, at the bottom of the garden?
