Description
You’ve Reached Sam by Dustin Thao is a Young Adult Magical Realism piece that thoroughly explores the nature of grief and loss after Julie loses her boyfriend Sam in a tragic car accident 6 months away from graduating high school. With their next big life steps thoroughly planned out, including destinations for University, preferred job opportunities and out-of-home renting, Julie naturally struggles to piece her next moments together aware that the future she and Sam had dreamed together has been killed along side him.
Desperate to hold on to him and their dreams for as long as she can, she reaches out to him and finds his voice at the end of the line. Unsure if it is real, or if she is completely losing her mind, Julie uses her regular phone contact with Sam to make sense of her grief and process her goodbye in a way that she believes both can move on from.
