Intoxicating use of language, but it hurts like a hangover. ( ) NaNoLoMo #2 2 Nov 2012 Butterfly Potion by Trent Zelazny Nightscape Press, LLP (2012), Paperback, 92 pages ISBN: 1938644018 **no spoilers** A lush collection of word-pictures and a geographically correct picture of Santa Fe fill this novella. 24 hours in the life of a blackout drinker. From waking up in a ditch with no memory of the night before and everything gone but forty-five cents in his pocket to finding himself in the arms of another regular from the bar, this is not so much a coming of age as a coming to terms for Perry. There are insightful words of wisdom and well crafted writing in a tale that is remarkably engaging for all that it's not a particularly happy adventure.

Perry wakes up in an arroyo, hungover and unsure how he got there. His wallet and cell phone missing, he walks back to the last place he remembers being before he blacked out the bar. Fueled by alcohol and a touch of companionship, Perry is determined to find out who rolled him, but standing in his way is an accident that happened six months earlier and the struggle his life has become since. In his search for the material things taken from him, he risks walking right past something far more precious: A new beginning. This new novella by Zelazny is dark, gripping, emotional noir at its best! "A powerful and good writer... someone who's been through hell and come out, I hope, the other side."
