Yeah, that's the ticket. There'...<i>Dew point</i><br /><br />Yeah, that's the ticket. There's a guy in the novel named Dewey. He represents something or other, I'm sure, and his name is a symbol of morning and moisture, perhaps like tears, the sadness that awaits the protagonist. Or tears of hope for the new day.
