Plot:

Paul Kemp, a disillusioned journalist from the bustling chaos of New York City, seeks solace in the tranquil island of Puerto Rico during the late Eisenhower era. He takes up a position at a local newspaper run by a weary editor named Lotterman. Immersing himself in the vibrant culture and the rum-filled lifestyle reminiscent of Hemingway's 'Lost Generation,' Paul embarks on an intriguing journey, becoming entwined with a captivating American woman and her fiancé - a questionable businessman involved in dubious property deals. Amidst this world of deception and allure, Kemp not only finds his voice as a writer but also discovers the essence of his own integrity, making his time in Puerto Rico an unforgettable chapter of self-realization.
