About the Book

Harry Logan, the author of a successful first novel finds himself living in chaos of expectations and relationships gone awry. He cannot find the words to begin his next book, and his friends and lovers cannot hear his silent screams for help through the bombast of his public personality. He begins to write in earnest again when he reacquaints himself with the gentle quiet Harry he left somewhere in his youth, and he forms and unlikely luncheon friendship with a fragile, funny, beautiful, and enigmatic librarian. As the book goes forward so does their unique friendship now well on its way to something more than that. Harry now must face the hard decisions to reconcile a private life with her and his public passion to become a force in the world of literature. They are the most difficult of his life.
