Fiction
In the spirit of Truman Capote’s classic holiday book, A
Christmas Memory, award-winning writer Michael Knight
delivers a poignant meditation on loss, legacy, and love, at
a particularly complicated time of year. In The Holiday
Season, the Posey men are still figuring out how to be a
family years after the death of the wife and mother who
bound them together. As Thanksgiving nears, hairline
fractures in the Poseys’ relationships finally splinter and
crack over what should be, but never is, a simple question:
where to spend the holidays. Patriarch Jeff wants everything
to remain how it was when his wife was alive, but his oldest
son thinks it’s time to move on and establish fresh
traditions. Caught in the middle is younger son, Frank, a
struggling actor who, as the conflict between his father and
brother escalates, is finally forced to choose between them.
The companion piece, Love at the End of the Year, is an
intoxicating tale that weighs up love in its many forms over
the course of a single, magical Alabama New Year’s Eve.
