Letters To Emma Bowlcut (Paperback, 2nd Ed.)

Sixty-two letters from a nameless protagonist comprise this epistolary novel. He writes them to Emma, a woman he sees at a party. Each entry captures the loose, disparate details of daily life, including desires, frustrations, joys, social observations, anecdotes, advice, and the self, as depicted through emotional weather updates. Emma's replies are not revealed, but the narrator's persona is as he philosophizes and courts the object of his affection. He is a fan of boxing, a scientist by trade, and a student of the "vortex"--an entity he uses to describe his self-deterioration and the emptiness in his life. Together, the letters reveal the internal dialog of a conflicted protagonist who shadowboxes Emma, himself, and even the reader.
