Paths

Paths: The Diary of Baine Adams, is the story of Baine Henry Adams, a gifted writer that

escapes his hometown of Bessemer, Alabama after his mother inexplicably abandons him and

his Grandfather. With this Baine struggles to come to terms with this traumatic event and

decides to head North in search of “Momma,” and to live out his dream of being a working writer

living in New York City. As he eloquently expresses his thoughts within his journal and

examines questions about Momma’s leaving and Grandpa’s lonely nights that consist of him

drinking his homemade moonshine and struggling with his fading memory, through emotional

trauma comes intrusion, the sudden insertion of a mysterious man named Cyrano-a man of

letters like no other despite having an unrefined presence-that helps Baine write to a beautiful

woman by the name of Sorena he meets one day on the New York City Subway. But things are

not as they appear with Baine and Cyrano, as inner conflict jeopardizes their connection and

stands between them, something made clear upon the arrival of Psychologist Dr. Herman S.

Stanton.

Paths: The Diary of Baine Adams, is a new take on the classic tale of Cyrano de Bergerac. A

story that examines the power of words and the mysteries of the human mind and the need to

connect with something real.
