What to expect
This latest plunge into the psyche of the lone American male by author Lysa Williams brings us three men struggling in the war against dysfunction: a high school student who rides the NYC subway each night in search of that perfect moment of beauty; a narcoleptic painter, the erotic Vermeer, who falls asleep on contact; and a psychic male prostitute who spends his off hours creating miniature models of the seven wonders of the world. Williams guides us in and out of these shadowy landscapes with gripping reality, shining a searchlight in the hidden corners.
