Resuscitation of a Hanged Man

Provincetown, Cape Cod: The Last Outpost of Civilisation
The end of the earth.

In the confused aftermath of a failed suicide attempt, Leonard English—pursuing a vague vision of redemption and an even vaguer offer of employment—finds himself in a Cape resort populated by religious zealots and promiscuous transvestites.

Leonard’s Journey

• Profession: Taking a position as a part-time disc jockey-cum-private investigator.
• Love: He falls hopelessly in love with a beautiful young gay woman.
• Struggles: As winter approaches, Leonard’s anguish mounts.

Key Themes

• Search for Meaning: His search for an elusive artist proves as futile as his desires.
• Obsession and Revelation: His growing obsessions lead to a tragic discovery and unexpected personal satisfaction.

A compelling tale of redemption, longing, and self-discovery set against the backdrop of a unique and isolated community.
