The Feast of Love

Awaking from a bad dream, Charlie Baxter ventures out into the moonlit night of his Ann Arbor neighborhood. He encounters a fellow insomniac and neighbor, Bradley W. Smith, who tells the first of the tales of love that will make up Charlie's new novel. Ex-wives and ex-wives' lovers, a high school punk and her former junkie boyfriend, parents and lost children, adult children and their parents - the stories are told in a medley of perfectly harmonized voices. Funny, erotic, sad, enchanted and yet completely real, The Feast of Love is a novel to delight in and share.
