These are the collected journals of my friend, Vincent Pantaglia, from a period late in his life.   During this time he was furiously documenting his daily activities with the hope of using the material to someday write a novel.   When he was unable to finish the journals or to realize his dream of re-working their stories and characters into a fiction, I took the notebooks into my possession for safekeeping after having received them from his family, and out of nostalgia, I suppose.
