"Compelling, vivid, hard to put down." - D. Donovan, Senior Reviewer, Midwest Book Review
In this contemporary romance tell-all that blurs the line between commercial and literary fiction, Joseph is a twenty-something American living in Prague, the Czech Republic. He calls it a “gap year”; for Joseph it’s a gap between his devastating divorce, and his uncertain future.
Living in this magically romantic city, Joseph obsesses over a waitress. If it weren’t for the kaleidoscope of distracting women, he might have a shot with Karina, the tall slender Czech model-wannabe. He keeps a journal, and finds himself digging through fragments of memory to try and discover where things went wrong in his first love. The story-within-the-story uses geology as a clue to where exactly he lost his way. An ode to Western New York, peppered with 80’s pop culture references, creates a tumultuous rendering of love lost. The journey was never to find someone he could love, but rather to unearth a way to love himself again.
