Tony Fellows, the narrator, is a sixty-year-old man who is prompted by a personal crisis to leave the city and seek temporary refuge in a rented room in Sag Harbor, where he hopes to reinvent himself. He achieves his goal in an entirely unexpected way, as he is set on a psychic and spiritual adventure by his new landlady, who gives him the tools to unlock his imagination, enter his own dreams, and explore that “fuzzy boundary.”
As the story progresses, he becomes increasingly entangled with the spirits who inhabit Jung's collective unconscious, including a Celtic god named Lugh. By the end he is able to commune with his ancestors and contemplate, without fear, what it will be like to rejoin them.
