Gin Palace 02 - The Bone Orchard (2013) - Plot & Excerpts
When I worked as a bartender for a few years in Sag Harbor, it was, in the summertime, dawn by the time I got back to the Hansom House. I drove west on the back roads, along the rim of Peconic Bay, and watched the sky fill with light shades of gray and blue till it was finally light. I quit the bar business because I grew tired of getting people drunk and taking money for it. I grew tired of the knowledge that people I had gotten drunk were on the roads of my town. In the wintertime, when my ride home was through darkness that spread out around me without a hint of an end, I would think of kids waiting for school buses and my customers, reeling as they left, virtually handicapped, out on the roads. Now it was November, and as black as ever outside my windshield. I could barely see the bare branches of the trees that flickered past my driver’s door window. I was alone on the long road to Sag Harbor. During my entire ride out there I didn’t pass one car. I saw nothing at all that resembled human activity or life till I turned onto a side street on the backside of town and saw Murph’s Backstreet Tavern through my windshield.
