About the Book

Whatever place one finds themselves in they could be someplace else. This dichotomy leaves us under a cloud of potentiality. What is possible is circumscribed only by our ego and the audacity of its imagination. So while we plan our future we must live in the present. All of the central characters of Other Lights, Other Places have made the leap of envisioning themselves in a role they desire which is contingent upon the strength of their resolve to make it happen. What they cannot elude is to be confronted by a world of concocted simulations. How then does one define the divide between what is genuine and what is fictional? Is there some means to test the authenticity of each? These sorts of inquiries are daily fare for Peter Bebouchet who has recently been promoted to senior partner of his law firm. It's an occasion to celebrate an odyssey of diligence and ambition that began in his schoolboy years. Looking back upon his life, he is bemused by his faith in who he is. Where did the zeal come from and why go to such lengths to prove it?

So begins Other Lights, Other Places. Peter Debouchet stands at the pinnacle of his professional life. He's recently been made a senior partner of his law firm. It pleases him to have been steadfast, but it hasn't solved the riddle of what on earth is he trying to prove to himself? In a sense, though, given the dynamics of his childhood it does seem inevitable. To this day he is still mystified by his parents' belief that an ominous force is lurking just out of sight. To escape from this fervid, insular world is what has shaped the long odyssey of being a diligent schoolboy, then a law student, then a husband, then a widower, now a senior partner. What bemuses him is the irony that he is a tax specialist. He's exchanged one set of fables and myths for another. Around him swirl the authors of others lives. Bright, brazen, and flashing with the assurance of their version of reality, Peter must ask himself does he have the wit and verve to invent an odysses to challenge them? Or is he to concede that the passion and pathos of life is beyond his grasp. It's time to find out.....
