"Solo Practice" is an unsettling book, distinguished but
disturbing, a dark novel of possession, obsession and the
corruption of love. It considers the limits of friendship and the
definitions of family, exploring the porous boundaries that
separate parent from child, brother from sister, friend from lover.
A finely crafted, compelling study of the nature of twinship, it
celebrates the commonality of soul, while also mining the depths of
the unspeakable heart. That is to say, this novel examines the
nature of love.
In luminous prose these stories follow the lives of four young
people, flawed and damaged from the start, chronicling their
efforts to help themselves and each other achieve the passage to
adulthood. Not all survive the journey, and those who do arrive at
places their dreams never imagined. Ultimately, " Solo Practice" is
a book about the nature of hope and healing, and the limits of
both. Like Raymond Carver, Philip Russell makes us reconsider the
meanings of redemption and salvation.
