Radicals liberate a zoo, teenagers flirt in a bowling alley, and W. B. Yeats discovers the music of The Smashing Pumpkins. It's almost always the anniversary of something terrible while tourists mosey through the graveyards of the world; the dead are cherished. In this thrillingly strange exploration of the comfort of the fantastical when the real is hard to bear, Stephen Sexton takes us on a journey through the past and the present, while Cheryl translates from the future, showing us how we exist in all three at once.
