To Pawn a Heart of Gold Newest Romantic Screenplay Entertains with
Perverse World of Gold-Digger NEW YORK - How often one speaks of a
heart of gold. How rarely one considers its monetary value. In his
new book, Geezer Pleaser (published by AuthorHouse), Lawrence J.
Corneck stuns readers yet again with his dark humor, unsavory
characters, daring dialogue and unusual predicaments, but this time
with the story of Asha, a woman hungry for love and money, who
often times confuses the two. A sexy call girl who pursues men
depending on the size of their wallets, Asha begins to date two men
at once - one being a reliable and responsible man named Wendell
who is often neglected by Asha, the other being an outlandish and
arrogant businessman named Rolando who pursues her despite his
marriage to Neptune, a minor movie star. Asha knows that the love
triangle is doomed from the beginning, toying with an affair with a
married man and stringing along a gullible wanna-be knight, but she
continues on her rollercoaster of emotions, pinning the men against
each other for money, affection and a few laughs. But Asha also has
a soft side that readers glimpse now and again. Brief moments
during which her genuine love for both men, mostly notably the
scene when Wendell bails her out of jail, occur throughout the
book. She has a teenage daughter about whom she constantly worries.
She cares for her elderly mother and often visits her in the
retirement home where she stays. What little money she manages to
scrounge from men all goes toward the welfare of those she loves,
leaving next to nothing to satisfy her greed. Despite her desire
for financial security, love is at the heart of her. Asha lives by
the motto, "I don't care whose heart is broken as long as it ain't
mine." As insightful as it is unpredictable, Geezer Pleaser
provides a window into an unfamiliar screwball world that still
possesses the hard decisions of real life, namely the love we
cannot forget and the difference just a few bucks can make. Born
and raised in New York, Corneck continues to love living in the Big
Apple. His first book, Existential Hell: A Screenplay Trilogy (also
available through AuthorHouse), a companion to his second book Big
Cigar, Small d**k, was published in 2005. More screenplays based
upon earlier characters, including Bald Lubavitcher, Mime's the
Word and Bubble Catcher, will soon be available through
AuthorHouse. For more information on Corneck and his books, please
