A

t what price do we sell our souls?

Subtle compromises; false promises; empty dreams.

Chasing things we thought we wanted, only to realize when we got them, they weren’t what we were seeking, at all.

Thomas McAllister awakes, unable to live the life he’d been living. Some whispering within him, subtle at first, calling him on an adventure – to where, he doesn’t know.

Giving it all up, abandoning it, letting it go, the life he used to live. Taking to the road; having adventures. In search of self, in search of some meaning that goes beyond the material veneer of this commercial world. Was everyone asleep? Did others experience this calling? Surely he must not be the only one.

Seeing things in a new way, finding new perspectives, Thomas arrives at his family’s farm in Canada, returning to his roots. How can you know where you are, if you don’t know where you came from? Living with his Uncle Bud, Thomas discovers the Harvard Trainer and also discovers himself.

An anthem to freedom, an ode to the road journey, a manifesto of personal liberation, the ultimate ballad of the broken heart, The Harvard Trainer will take you on a ride you will never forget.

THE RECOLLECTION

It’s a winter’s day, perhaps the last day of an old man’s existence.

Matt “Tug” Cutugno has lived a good life, that of a hard working family man. He has earned the right to a happy ending; he wants a pat on the back for a job well done. But just where is his reward?

Tug’s wife and children are gone and his dreams of a future are now memories of his past – the war; getting married and raising a family; his days as a working man.

His present is filled by winter barbeques of grilled kielbasa for breakfast, grilled chicken for lunch and grilled zucchini and hot dogs for dinner.

As he sits on his lawn chair in the snow-covered backyard of the home that he built himself, a menagerie of wonderful people visits this extraordinary everyman who is not searching for himself, but who is seeking the meaning of what he accomplished in this life.

And with each visit from his wife, his children, his friends and neighbors, his war time buddies, the story of this brave and unsentimental man unfolds so that the past and present merge into something that can be called the truth of an entire generation of men who fought in World War II.

THE REVIEWS

“The Winter Barbeque is an exceptional work – a bittersweet journey of years, traversed in hours, while melting the boundaries between memory and reality.”

– M.L. Martin
