The Fabricator

October 1992. An ageing hippie gatecrashes a whist drive in the parish hall. He gets talking to Colm Herron, pillar of the church and chief organiser of fundraising activities for the local priests.

Their conversation about the Swinging Sixties and the Summer of Love is an earthquake for Colm who lived through the Sixties without actually being aware that they were happening. He broods for the next twenty years over what might have been. Till finally in 2012 he sits down to rewrite history, making sure to change his identity in the process so as not to spoil his good name.

The story he writes is contained between the covers of this book.
