The Parameters of Miracles
Just what are the �Parameters of a Miracle�?, according to Atrenna and Tommy Moran, whatever people need them to be. This is a story about one of those incidents in life where fates steps in and life takes a miraculous and unexpected turn.
Newtown as a location with friction is the perfect setting for the friction between the characters, and the pull between �right and wrong�.
Tommy is a drunk without a game plan - that involves anything other than his next drink. His proclivity for alcohol leads to an accident, which results in a series of events - small miracles?, that cause/allow Tommy to alter his usual patterns of behaviour.
I enjoyed the unfolding of the story, Tommy�s realizations and �redemption�. The conclusion of the story is very �neat�, perhaps too neat for some tastes, but it doesn�t detract from the tale that has been told, about the quirky experiences and lessons that fate throws at us.
