Fever Chart by Bill Cotter

A darkly comic odyssey follows a chronically ill, debt-ridden drifter through a few harrowing days of misadventure, haunted by heartbreak and bad decisions. Careening between seedy rooms, odd jobs, and dubious schemes, he confronts the fragility of his body and the chaos of his thoughts while grasping for connection and a way to steady his life. Bleak, tender, and absurd by turns, it traces the rise and fall of a feverish mind seeking a measure of grace.
