Jason Huza’s Emma And Adam, Is a Modern Take on Despair and Hope
Industry: Books
Emma and Adam is a story of the compassion of others, and reconciling justified anger. Which way do we go, when direction loses all meaning?
New York, NY (PRUnderground) October 5th, 2017
It’s a strange disorientation when what you know is real cannot be real. Emma and Adam were just beside me. Then they weren’t. I spun around a few more times. A crowd was forming. I looked behind me, to my sides, frantic… but they were gone. What was real, could not be real. I was alone, and they were gone.
Readers can expect from Jason Huza’s Emma and Adam an unflinching look at the depths of despair sudden and tragic loss brings about. A primary color of human emotion, sadness, is a constant, able to spring up on a moment’s notice, build and metastasize over time, or be a looming companion for years. Confronting sorrow is a personal journey, with steps and goals as nuanced and unique as a fingerprint.
As in reality, Derrick Kelley must persevere and consider his options carefully… or not. On his path are placed myriad signposts, distractions, beacons of hope, and siren songs of lethargy. Anger breeds resentment, planting the seeds for revenge. Momentary glimpses of joy instill a tanuous sense of progression, leaving him vulnerable to a wrenching reality frustratingly there when the sun rises. Is burying oneself in excess a viable option when all options are as bleak as the next, or can the comfort of family and friends lift one successfully from the mire?
Emma and Adam is a balancing act, as vacillating and given to caprice as the great city playing backdrop, New York, is herself. Ride with Derrick on his peaks and valleys, considering yourself what you would do in his shoes. For as he comes to find, life can change in an instant, and the love that we give and receive, in small increments and large, counts ever so much more than anything else.
