When the worst that can happen, happens, the only useful lesson is the knowledge that it can. That's the take-away: a world can actually end, time can actually run out, sadness can prevail. But I didn't know that then . . .   From one of Canada's most celebrated writers and the author of the classic memoir The Danger Tree comes an occasionally hilarious, sometimes heart-breaking meditation on love, memory, and the fathomless depths of grief.       Likeness is a multi-generational story told through the vehicle of a painting, a portrait of Macfarlane by the well-known Canadian artist, John Hartman.

It was her life or my freedom. I drove away from my siblings with a plan to return and help them find our parents. When I held Pearl in my arms as I carried her toward Bunker 3, I knew that I couldn't leave her to die. She needed a hospital, fast. At the hospital, the staff kept asking questions that I couldn't answer. In desperation, I contacted the leader of Bunker 3 and knew that I sealed my fate. One way or the other, I was going back to Bunker 3. I was right; as soon as Pearl was discharged, we were whisked underground. I thought it was bad being stuck in Bunker 3. That the worst I'd have to face was boredom. When Norman found me, I learned exactly how wrong I was. He was always around, always there. Eventually, he made me an offer that I couldn't resist. My choices had consequences that I couldn't stop. I looked in the mirror and didn't even recognize myself. One thing's for sure, I knew without a doubt not even Pearl could save me now. Chimera...
