Adam Haslett Synopsis: Imagine Me Gone is a standalone title by Adam Haslett. When Margaret’s fiancé, John, is hospitalized for depression in 1960s London, she must make a choice: carry on with their plans despite what she now knows of his condition, or back away from the suffering it may bring her. She decides to marry him. At the heart of the story is their eldest son, Michael, a brilliant, anxious music fanatic who makes sense of the world through parody. Over the span of decades, his younger siblings – the savvy and responsible Celia and the ambitious and tightly controlled Alec – struggle along with their mother to care for Michael’s increasingly troubled and precarious existence.
