Passionate Spectator

In Passionate Spectator, memoirist Peter Leroy and his wife, Albertine, are living in Manhattan-by the skin of their teeth. Casting about for a source of income, Peter purchases a book from a homeless street corner peddler, Creative Self-Promotion for Taxidermists, hoping he can adapt its techniques to promote his fledgling business: Memoirs While You Wait, a writing service designed to satisfy the contemporary compulsion for confession and self-revelation. "Middle age, mortality, and the meaning of life: all are examined with the lightest touch imaginable." Kirkus Reviews "Ebullient, canny, and entertaining." Booklist "As devious as a Möbius strip, turning in on itself, doubling back through events that have already occurred, and generally subverting our Newtonian world view." St. Petersburg Times "Nothing less than an assessment of each person's place in the universe . . . as a spectator who gives shape to life simply by watching and remembering." Nashville Scene
