Terrorism, crack cocaine and rape. Failure, miscarriages and
suicide. Divorce, incest and misery. This Other Eden is Michael
Hemmingson at his most brutal. A man wins the lottery and loses his
family. A book agent must deal with a wild girl writer, a white
trash genius and a limousine full of angry teenagers. His
protagonists scratch at the bottom of society desperate to maintain
delusions of adequacy. They fall into each other with hatred and
bile; emerging with their own unique form of heroism. Provocative
and intriguing, THIS OTHER EDEN by Michael Hemmingson is akin to
reading a cross between someone's private journal and a True Crime
magazine. Feeling titillated and naughty, as if reading a sibling's
most private and dirty secrets, I found myself wholly unwilling to
put this book down. It is glorious train wreck of loss, betrayal,
and crime mixed with intimate thoughts and a poignant sense of
loneliness. THIS OTHER EDEN is the kind of book that will make you
forget your own life for a while but will also allow you to be
grateful for it when you put the book down. Jennifer Brozek,
Submissions Editor, Apex Book Company
