The quote from Hemingway that inspired the title is on the page following the dedication "To my son David":

Not this August, nor this September; you have this year to do what you like.
Not next August, nor next September; that is still to soon . . .
But the Year after that or the year after that, they fight.
Ernest Hemingway
