Hughie Mittman is in search of forgiveness. His troubled mother has just died, and it's all Hughie's fault. His ill-tempered father, now more distant than ever before, is doing nothing to persuade him otherwise. Ignoring the advice of his loyal friend Nyxi - who he met at hospital following a brutal encounter with a lawnmower - Hughie does his best to navigate this unfamiliar version of his life and figure out a way to atone for what he has done. But during his quest for clarity, he ignores the one question he truly wants answered: was his father telling the truth when he said Hughie was adopted? 'Hughie Mittman's Fear of Lawnmowers' explores grief and reconciliation, the power of friendship and of the acceptance that there are thing we cannot change.
