Description A story told with an unusual approach by three speakers about a man who, on learning he is developing AIDS, commits suicide. The character Jack presents himself by way of monologue during the story. This story, conveyed by abstract words, leaps from past tense (after death) to the present (with Jack's appearance). All proceeds donated to the Victorian AIDS council.
