The Beach

<p><strong><em>The Beach</em></strong> consists of two new tales from John Fraser</p><p> </p><p>What is a human life worth? If you save someone's what is it worth to you - and if you seek a reward how do you get it whatever it may be? Is that life perhaps the only valuable thing there is that has value only to the person who wins twice - getting their life back and not having to give a reward? The characters in <em>The Beach </em>seek answers to this question - what is a life? what worth does it have? - travelling through many remote places and civilisations. </p><p> </p><p><em>Memoirs Memorials </em>examines a devious spy - a spy on the secrets of life. If saving lives accumulates confusions a heap of partial disparate conclusions - what is a life of duplicity fiddling false witness and falsity in general worth? It seems a fiction in which someone writes all the parts and is the hero/heroine. Is it meaningless to be condemned or is it victimless as victimless as ordinary straightforward relationships and personalities - with their bad marriages bad bargains failures catching infections from partners who should know better? </p><p> </p><p> </p>
