Gregory Lasch is an enigma; both shy and forthcoming, conservative though sometimes experimental, naive and curious. He craves abandon in sex yet fears abandonment in life. Through a series of misadventures that begin as innocent, if quite unusual, sexplay but end with a death, Gregory is sent to prison. This ordeal demands of him that he understand his true motivations and accept his life for what it became. Follow his evolution from birth to self-acceptance. With an IQ of 155, even he questions whether or when he will move past his na???vete and open himself to forgiveness of his mother's abandonment of him as well as the abandonment of him by his male lover. Even his father becomes a distant presence until he finally can love himself. This all happens when he opens his heart and forgives. All novels are on some level autobiographical, you say. The writer can't hide from himself as he writes. Characters are reimagined from personal experience. Situations may be fictitious; each of you may see yourselves-or imagine that a character is you. You will meet four main characters that are parts of Richard Rollin Gartner's being, psyche, and imagination. Maybe they are also parts of yours, Dear Reader.
