The Living is the culmination of a three year investigation into the life and work of Dalton Trumbo through his most controversial work. 

 

Explore Johnny’s isolation and longing to connect with the world of the living, as well as the reoccurring cycles of history as it pertains to politics, war and power. Hopefully Johnny will find peace at last.

 

The Living explored the impact of conflict on those left behind, and the way in which the echoes of the nationalistic rhetoric of the WWI era impacted the life and career of Dalton Trumbo, who was blacklisted during the McCarthy trials. The author struggles with the ongoing impact of his work, forcing his character to suffer to spare the lives of others.
