Synopsis

Highly literate and reluctantly beautiful, Tuli is a young woman with a compulsion to have sexual relations with men she finds pathetic or repulsive. Just as she determines to end her unhealthy behavior, she meets Sam, a young man whose bent frame and nervous disorder make him resemble just what she is trying to quit. The story is narrated by Tuli's homely pet fish, Fish, who loves Tuli and grapples with the hopelessness of his own desire as he waits for Tuli to find happiness. This postmodern novel has been aptly described as "Funny, sad, sweet and strange."

À propos de l'auteur

Paul Mosier quit drinking at age twenty-five, because he did not have the resolve to see his alcoholism through to its logical conclusion. He quit writing at age thirty-two because he didn't have the strength of character to return to alcoholism. He then spent a period of years being paid to paint pictures as a so-called artist. He never could care for brushes properly, so he founded a green investing company and somehow got married and fathered two adorable daughters. He began writing again in 2011 and has completed two novels to date, Breakfast At Tuli's and the equally absurd Genre. He claims he writes only what the muse asks him to write, which sounds like a bit of a cop-out. He confesses to using conjunctions to begin sentences just to piss off other writers he is friendly with, and uses passive language in a manner that could be seen as passive-aggressive. The handwriting analysis machine at the Arizona State Fair called him "easily aroused." Make of that what you wish.
