In the paradox between achieving your goals and achieving the Impossible Dream, which is preferable? Meanwhile, given a choice, should you opt for cathartic or therapeutic? The Guest House revives old acquaintances and reviews friendships that can't have a second life, while answering the question of whether it is ever too late to be part of your own coming of age novel. A Minsky Moment? Perhaps, but which Minsky? The Guest House examines the future through the looking glass of the past, without losing sight of the present. And I'm still convinced the inventor of the mute button deserves the Nobel Peace Prize.
