More DescriptionSex and death collide on a quiet street in Brooklyn, when two neighbors witness a murder. To combat the senselessness of what they have seen, the two begin an affair hoping together to reconstruct the order that existed before brutality shattered their quiet lives. But their privacy, fragile as life itself, is shattered as well, when an investigation of the killing turns their private lives very, very public. Medusa, a New York gossip columnist makes their situation grist for a cynical readership until the two now intimate neighbors decide to fight back. This wonderfully written, darkly comic novel exposes the whirlpool of desire that swirls around our deepest fears, and the lengths some will go to discover whether tainted motives, lost love, and death itself can be redeemed.
