Lucy Dreams

or the Unremarkable Life of Jeremy Moore

When Jeremy Moore thinks he is about to die, he watches his life flash before his eyes. Worst movie ever. He had never even once been shot at. Never faced down a man-eating tiger. Never mushed a dogsled across the North Pole.
His has been an unremarkable life.
Samantha is nine years old and has a fatal illness. She knows she will be dead soon. She is sorry because she knows it will be much harder for her mother, Monica, than for her after she is gone. Until then, she is enjoying every day she is alive.
The old man and the young girl become unlikely friends in the hospital where both are being treated. Jeremy teaches Samantha how to fly paper airplanes and work a yoyo. Samantha teaches Jeremy how to live.
And how to die.
With his three lifelong friends, his beautiful triplet daughters, and Tasha, the Physical Therapist with a dark secret, Jeremy Moore explores life’s great mysteries – death, faith, trust; coconut cream pie, sex toys, and mayflies; and the immeasurable value of a life well lived.
Pierpoint’s second novel is quirky, intimate, and irreverent. It is also a very entertaining and thought-provoking read.
