| Synopsis: | "You're actually suggesting that god blew up two buildings in order to save us from bankruptcy?" Matthew escapes from the World Trade Centre attacks to offers of cake from his wife and cheese baskets from a grateful nation. The media want him to be a hero, his wife wants him to pay the mortgage. But something odd's happening to Matthew's body. And nobody seems to understand. Francine Volpe's Late Fragment is a dark, comic exploration of the personal aftershocks of one of the defining events of the twenty-first century. | |||||
