Publisher's Synopsis
Stephen is an ill, unemployed proof reader with a persistent sensation of being trapped in his body. Approaching fifty, he has lost to AIDS almost everyone who mattered to him - including his lover, Robert, dead now for three years. As Stephen's television broadcasts frightening news about a perilous crisis in Russia, he is visited by three initiates of a strange religious cult, the Children of Michael, who inform him that the Archangel Michael is coming and that the End Time is imminent. Is it real, or is this the fever dream of a man terrified of his lonely mortality?
