Fault Lines

Schnelle, Robert C., Jr.

Abstract Details

2001, MA, University of Cincinnati, Arts and Sciences : English and Comparative Literature.
Loosely structured as a bildungsroman, this collection of four short stories was originally written over a period of about two years, from 1997 to 1999. Each story has, at its heart, a highly-fictionalized recounting of an event in my lifetime, beginning from the time I was a teenager, to a time some twelve years or so later. As the manuscript progresses, the main character at first finds some redemption in family, then because of various flaws in his character, he begins to move along fault lines that are determined by the choices he’s made; choices which eventually lead him down a path of remembrance, regret, and adultery. Still, he learns things – the hard way – and in the future, beyond the time frame of the fourth story, those lessons will serve to guide him in positive directions.
