I saw it on page 84 in "For One More Day" by Mitch Albom.

"I cover my head and duck away. I run down the stairs and out the garage. I stay sway until well past dark."

What does "well past dark" mean?

THX!

it means "Deep into the night" or "well after the sun went down and it was dark".

It means a good amount of time past the time that it would normally get dark (sunset). So the person in the book stayed away late into the night.

It is referring to the the time of night when the last rays of dusk are well gone and it is totally dark outside.

After the twilight has definitely gone. Long after sunset.

The evening time or towards sunset is almost dark then later it will be dark to a certain amount and after a long time has passed say 7.30 it can be considered well past dark
