First-time novelist and renowned literary critic Bruce-Novoa explores here the very relationship of love and art in this highly lyrical and experimental novel that is set to the backdrop of babyboomer history and culture, especially as expressed in film, music and popular culture from the 1960s to the 1980s. The protagonist, a talented cinematographer, sees his beloved everywhere he focuses his camera and his mind's eye, and despite the turns of fortune, a series of lovers and even marriage to another, Paul hopes to ultimately live his life out with his dream girl. This obsession and the fateful possibility of reunion are the suspenseful, driving forces to this artful romance.
