Martin Yesterday [Paperback]

Brad Fraser (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: June 1, 1999

At thirty-something, Matt suddenly finds himself looking for more than reckless flings with younger partners -- he wants maturity and commitment. He meets Martin Yesterday, a middle-aged city councillor, and his prayer seems to be answered. Martin, however, is not always forthcoming about his private affairs, and holds some very dark secrets. Originally commissioned for CBC Radio, this play premiered in Canada in Toronto before being reworked and produced in Edmonton.
