Last Letter (NYP)

When a 31-year old man comes face-to-face with the prospect of an early death, at first he sees nothing but confirmation of his oldest and deepest fears. But chance encounters with a couple of strangers give him new passion and perspective. Finally, he begins to recognize the childhood trauma and tragic coping mechanisms that have kept him from leading a normal life. Now, the question is not just how long he has to live, but whether or not he can come to terms with his past in time to save himself - and what that salvation would entail.
