Summary
This is a story about a man named Kevin.
Or, rather, about The Narrator, almost exactly as we know him- but not quite.
Kevin B. was once a respected screenwriter for the BBC, responsible for works that cemented his legacy as a master of witty and impassioned storytelling. That is, until he was fired several years prior due to a false scandal that nearly destroyed his career. Now, he lives out his early 50's isolated in his London flat, relegated to the occasional TV special, if he's lucky. Most of what he writes, he writes to please his audience, imprisoned by the same artistic legacy he once prided himself on.
But in his spare time, he begins to tell a different story. A story about a man named Stanley. And this one is entirely for him. No longer shackled to his identity as Kevin, in his mind he takes on the role of The Narrator, thrilled by the control he has over this world in his mind- and the companionship of his protagonist.What to do when one morning he finds that same protagonist has come to life in his living room?
