This is the storey of a woke thirty seven year old who reminisces about the wrong life paths that he has chased, Ignored, followed or failed at in life while going out of town to attend the funeral of a lifelong friend, always a potential lover but never pursued, who killed herself. It's really only a story about himself. The story is done in a narrative styling and he even talks for the other characters. Some will see this as the bold, stunning and brave telling of a personal journey and how personal feelings have lead to this moment in life. Others will see this as an expose on borderline personality disorders or mental illness. Either way, the story is about the journey. Don't look for entertainment. That's not what this is about. The drama is short lived and always dismissed out of hand afterwards. There is no grand expose for the story logic and no eye opening ending. In fact, it's a dismal approach to living life from beginning to with nothing learned. The whole thing is nothing but a chain of thought and a rambling of conscience. I honestly did not know what to expect but this certainly wasn't what I expected. If you hate your life and what you've done with it then you might find some level of catharsis in viewing this series. There are no spoilers here. They don't exist. The ending is just another thing in the main character's life journey that will be forgotten about, just as every other interpersonal interaction has been dismissed by him. I recommend giving this a pass unless you find yourself experiencing a similar journey.
