The self-immolation of Thomas Dreer sets into motion an unlikely love affair between two of the mourners left behind.

Nicholas Finch and Melissa Melloway are at a crossroads. Finding each other when they are at their most lost and vulnerable, they journey together to rediscover meaning in their lives. However, after the discovery of manuscripts written by Thomas Dreer and left behind after his death, Dreer’s disembodied voice continues to haunt any possibility of lasting peace and happiness.

The Weeping Wildflower is an experimental work in which the ultimate validity of an omniscient perspective is questioned, in addition to the finality of death.
