Overview
An engrossing literary drama that is stunning, elegant and mournfully wrought, None Wasted, None Spared is the tour de force debut novel by screenwriter Brian Pelton. A formidable blend of irony and heartache, the drama unfolds in a rush of actions with underlying and heartfelt humor. In the Pacific Northwest on the eve of the Great Depression, along with a restless nation, one couple's promising future is compromised. Raised in the shadow of her domineering father, Vera Rush is a local beauty whose husband, Phillip Steadman, proves to be a cheerful spendthrift unable to hold a regular job. His compliments mean less to her than the attentions, real and imagined, of other men. Along with their two sons, the precocious and wayward Jack, and the younger frail Roddy, their lives and the lives of their friends change forever when they fall under the spell of the Australian expatriate, Jimmy Burns, whose influence leads them down shady byways but also points them to their ultimate salvation.
