Fiction. Gerald (with his son's input) gives us a series of witty monologues concerning life in a typical elder home. As both his mental and physical condition deteriorate, he moves from Independent Living to Assisted Living and, finally, Death. In so doing, father and son plunder a variety of texts, refunctioning them to fit this gerontic narrative into a sampler culture.
