Petty Officer Miguel Moiré serves aboard the mighty navy warship USS Johnny Good, where he has settled in to the same robotic cycle as everyone else around him-complain, work, complain, drink, sleep, repeat. Over the course of a few days, Moiré has several encounters with a mysterious new shipmate, who advises him to drink less. Soon the petty officer finds himself forced to confront his alcoholism amid the day-to-day demands of being a sailor and a new consciousness of his own personal issues. Moiré's self-awareness becomes impeccable as he reflects on social trends and his own persona. But if he doesn't act soon, his heightened perception may not do much more than give him a front-row seat to his own self destruction. Painting a vivid portrait of the life of a navy officer, this novella offers a look at the mind of an alcoholic attempting to function in society while maintaining an outward semblance of normalcy.
