Publisher Description
Living a desperate, lonely life in Nashville, a reclusive writer seeks comfort from massage-parlor prostitutes and other down-and-out types he meets in Music City's "underground world." When he encounters a massage-parlor girl who shares with him her tragic life story, he begins to develop an obsessive attachment to the woman. Just then, he receives word his father in New England is dying and that his return home will reunite him with the wild, mysterious sister who had abandoned the family years before. As he struggles to cope with the trauma of his father's death and his mysterious sister's reemergence into his life, the young man resolves to save the prostitute from her desperate, tragic existence. Or will she save him?
Customer Reviews
Intense psychological narrative
I’ve just had the amazing first-experience of reading a book of fiction by one of my best friends. It’s quite an adventure to parse out aspects of the author (who I know well) from the events contained in this work. I highly recommend this book for those who enjoy stories of redemption and fate. Since it packs a lot of punch for a short volume, you will be prevented from putting it down. Now I’m on to begin reading “Everything Means Nothing To Me” by the same author.
