Some Bright Nowhere is a cancer story, a marriage story, and a story of confidence. Eliot has been taking care of his wife Claire who has metastasized lung cancer for nine years. As they reach the end of this journey, their wishes for, and understanding of each other, swirl around them. Eliot questions himself when Claire's friends move in, and their children express themselves. While Claire is the patient, Eliot is the main focus of the story, and he really tries to be a good guy. Death in a close-knit family is a very hard thing, I'm sure every family story is different, this was an interesting take.
