How To Write A Serious Novel About Love

by Diane Schoemperlen

Genres: General Fiction

Synopsis

Teaching us to avoid character names like Mitzi and Skip and to forget about hearts that look like valentines, this story provides funny instructions for writing a serious novel about love, while also giving us insight into the perpetually unsatisfied state of a truly creative mind.

Forms of Devotion contains eleven stories, each one a brilliant interplay of words and images. Forms of Devotion is a playful, sometimes surreal, and often mysterious juxtaposition of a historical fascination with anatomy and classical themes with the author's contemporary exploration of everyday people, places, and things.
