adrian's diary
 More than just Adrian's thoughts leading up his
suicide, this diary symbolizes Tony's past life,
when he was really friends with Adrian and dating
Veronica. He is desperately chasing after this past
and the diary, not to learn more about Adrian's last
days, but to rediscover the truth.
“The question of accumulation,”
Adrian had written. […] Life isn’t
just addition and subtraction.
There’s also the accumulation,
the multiplication, of loss, of
failure

Adrian's Math Formula
• Quite literally this seemingly mismatched
jumble of symbols and variables holds the
key to the events leading to Adrian's suicide
(A=Anthony/Adrian B=Baby M=Mother
V=Veronica).
• As soon as Tony realizes the truth in the pub
he is able to decipher this.

Severn Bore
• This natural event in which the river Severn
reacts with the ocean and causes a wave
represents the impossible in Tony's life and
how it can still take place, no matter how
logically ridiculous it might seem. More
specifically, it can symbolize his rekindling
of his relationship with Veronica.
