Distance

Edwin Page

His art and crafts shop failing, Dan goes on the road in order to visit friends at three different destinations in England, hoping to rediscover the man he once was. Drunken misdemeanours, petty theft and sexual encounters are among the experiences that await him on his road trip to find himself. After saying his goodbyes, he leaves Cambridge and travels to Bristol to see a friend he has known since childhood, but his presence causes hostility. Moving on to Southampton, Dan finds hope in a colourful encounter. Finally arriving in Plymouth, he visits friends he made while attending university. It is there that his journey reaches its surprising climax.

Distance is a fictional journey based on autobiographical elements of the author's life. The third novel written by Edwin Page, this was the first of a publishable standard. Penned in 1996, Mr. Page has stayed as close to the original manuscript as possible during the editorial process so that what you read remains close to what he wrote in his mid-twenties.

'Extremely readable' - T. Jackson, Pan Macmillan
