Frail (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798234123596)

Michael is tired. He's a twenty-something retail employee who probably (definitely) smokes too many cigarettes and wrestles against the logic of his religious upbringing. He craves a genuine experience of free will. Can he ever be fully human? Just once? Please, and thank you.

In a brisk 120 pages, Ricky Allen pulls the reader into a whirlwind where the past and present collapse into psychological and philosophical rumination, all animating a young man's quest for free will and bodily autonomy. To be here, no, fully human, fully of the world. Perhaps.
