People say they know when chemistry exists between them. "Sparks fly," as the saying goes. They can feel it almost instantly. Is that possible after fifty years? Or is it merely wishful thinking or feeling? Memory competes with hope. In this generous, wry, and absorbing little novel ("novelita"), two individuals reconnect after an absence of decades, and they don't know what hit them. But they're willing to find out. Along the way, readers are invited to consider, or reconsider, youth, aging, identity, and fate.
