Fiction
Finn was a beautiful orphan. H was a prep school misfit. On
a September afternoon many years ago they met on a beach on
the coast of England, near the ancient fisherman’s hut Finn
was squatting in with his woodstove, a case of books, a
striped blanket and a cat. H insinuates his way into Finn’s
life—his blazing wood fires and fishing expeditions. Their
friendship deepens, offering H the freedom and human
connection that has always eluded him. But all too soon the
idyll of their relationship is shaken by a heart-wrenching
scandal.
What I Was is the unforgettable
story of H at the end of his life looking back on this
friendship, which has shaped and obsessed him for nearly a
century.
