Provocative and compulsively readable, Michael Goorjian's debut
novel "Beatrice" weaves strands of mystery, romance, philosophy,
and magical realism into a wondrous tale of self-discovery and
hope.
" "Something in me knows of a life I was meant to live but for
whatever reason, I have not..." "
Words that ring painfully true for Adam Sheppard, a San Francisco
videogame programmer who has spent the majority of his 30-something
years sitting in dark cavernous spaces handing over his life to a
computer screen. On the verge of a psychotic break, Adam follows a
homeless man's enigmatic advice to make a run for it, before it's
too late. Leaving behind a loveless marriage and his best
friend/business partner who takes credit for his ideas, Adam ends
up returning to the land of his childhood, the hauntingly rustic
town of Mendocino, California.
One night out on the cliffs overlooking the Pacific Ocean, lost in
thoughts of suicide, Adam has a chance encounter with a mysterious
woman, only later to realize that she is Beatrice, his long
lost--but not forgotten--childhood friend whose fiery spirit and
red hair has haunted his memories. Over time Adam discovers that
his reunion with Beatrice is not simply a coincidence.
As Adam awakens to a hope that his life could be more than a bleak
wasteland, he soon finds himself a crucial pawn in a game that pits
dark forces that have enslaved humankind against those few quixotic
souls who still search for meaning, beauty, and magic in the world.
