In a damp, old Sussex castle, American literary phenomenon
Stephen Crane lies on his deathbed, wasting away from tuberculosis
at the age of twenty-eight. The world-famous author has retreated
to England with his wife, Cora, in part to avoid gossip about her
ignominious past as the proprietress of an infamous Florida
bordello, the Hotel de Dream. In the midst of gathering tragedy,
Crane begins dictating what will surely be his final work: a
strange and poignant novel of a boy prostitute in 1890s New York
and the married man who ruins his own life to win his love.
