This story jumps around  through time between pre and post collapse of civilization centering around a single man, Arthur, and all the people's lives he's touched in different ways.

The story opens with Arthur's death on the night of the collapse at a play performance. Some of the people we follow are his ex-wives, his son, his best friend, and a little girl who was a co-star at the play.

I wasn't personally attached to the story, but there wasn't anything wrong with it either.
