Description
"Over the Backyard Fence" is an account of a man's
search for his past among the relics of someone
else's life. In the early 1990s Edwin Billick is lost
in his present situation. For him, nothing seems
to connect. He appears to himself caught in a
never ending treadmill of "sameness."
His days are simply pass through, misty shadows of the same people,
places, and conversations. Always the same outcomes confront
him. His job is dull and made worse by the same uninteresting but
necessary people.
On the verge of micro insanity, he suddenly decides to return back
to his childhood place of birth. The suddenness of his decision takes
him and his coworker by surprise.
Once home, he fi nds more than what he sought and less than what
drove him on this return journey to his past.
Transfi xed by his menacing backyard fence, he relives again the hated
sameness, but this time the pain of the sensation is shared-but not
by him alone.
