BlackoutsBlackouts

Out in the desert in a place called the Palace, a young man tends to a dying soul, someone he once knew briefly, but who has haunted the edges of his life. Juan Gay - playful raconteur, child lost and found and lost, guardian of the institutionalized - has a project to pass along to this new narrator. As Juan waits for his end, he and the narrator trade stories - moments of joy and oblivion - and resurrect lost loves, lives, mothers, fathers, minor heroes.
