Synopsis

"This is a novel about friendship, about infidelity, about emotional ignorance and animal malice, enacted within the framework of re-appropriated Greek mythology. It's a novel about ingratitude and imposition, about bad behavior and heavy drinking. In the end it's about not seeing it coming when you should have seen it coming, because after all, it's your fault." - Auric Adams Elliot Poulain is a crime scene reporter. He’s also foul-mouthed, drunk, and caustic. Arthur Cannason is young, charming, and well-off. The friendship the two form is fast and unlikely, fueled on drunken late nights and Elliot’s genial envy. When Elliot is offered the use of a colleague’s lake house for the summer he invites the newly-divorced Arthur to come stay with him, to relax and get out of the city. Up at the lake they meet a beautiful woman, the wife of a renowned artist. Together the three spend the summer drinking, swimming, boating, and playing tennis. Elliot is happy, but happy isn’t what Elliot is used to. Also, Arthur and the artist’s wife seem to be spending more and more time alone. Auric Adams’ debut is a moving and insightful story about how the hardest prisons to escape are the familiar ones we keep making for ourselves. Written by Auric Adams Cover design by Tom Maven
