Summary
When your friend asks you to come with her to her grandfather's farm, desperate to escape a 9-to-5 that sucked her soul dry years ago, you accept readily. Maybe you'll never find anything or anyone to make you feel okay again, but the air is cleaner, the people are kinder, and this saloon holds a lot more promise than the jazz bar you reluctantly called your home. You accepted the truth a long time ago: that you will never be enough. But Yoba, do you yearn to have someone look at you wholly, even if you'll never admit it out loud.
The banal truth is, maybe you have to admit it out loud. Or maybe singing your songs to a jazz-loving doctor with the kindest brown eyes you have ever seen will suffice.
In which you, the Jazz Singer, move to Pelican Town with your friend, the Farmer. You're convinced that you're broken beyond repair, but the Doctor comes prepared with more than just stitches and casts.
