What do you do when youve finished with the love of your life?

David's a mess. He doesnt know how to get over his ex, the Eater of Souls. He's tried traditional methods, such as sleeping with a co-worker and looking at his female friends in a new light. He's even tried talking to his parents -- only to discover that theyre definitely having a lot more sex than he is right now. But the Eater of Souls is still there, like a phantom limb after a painful amputation.

Then along comes the Goddess. She's funny, she's clever, she's beautiful: in short, she's perfect. But, as David well knows, the problem isnt meeting the woman of your dreams -- it's managing not to screw up once youve found her.

Shot through with biting dialogue and beguilingly oddball characters, Booty Nomad is both extremely funny and unexpectedly touching -- a memorable first novel from a distinctive new talent.

From AudioFile:

David, a young Manhattanite and producer of children's TV programs, has just dumped his longtime love and is searching for a new one. Events humorous, touching, provocative, and at times implausible follow, peppered with monologues and dialogues both raunchy and hilarious. An original pop song following the story, though uninspired, clearly conveys the characters' emotions. Mark Feuerstein reads energetically, with excellent comic timing, but has minimal ability to distinguish voices, so we are often left wondering who said what. But the listener muddles through, and even this flaw is no reason to pass up this funny, engaging novel. W.M. � AudioFile 2004, Portland, Maine-- Copyright � AudioFile, Portland, Maine
