The Act of Falling

by Bruce Aiken

Four students meet in the first few weeks of a new university year. Chance brought them together, but one year later all had either fallen out of their course or fallen out of life.Nobody remembers every detail of their life, but Richard has more gaps in his memory than he would like. Circumstances beyond his control present him with problems that he isn’t able to deal with. Caught in a choice between two girls who are best friends, he tries to make decisions, but is hampered by his own limited experience and the aspirations of his new flat mate.There is a fine line between love, friendship, desire and anger. What drives someone past the point of no return might be no more than a misplaced word.
