Entertaining Welsey Shaw: A Novel

Violet Rothko and Other Stories

<p>Review      Very beautifully written..."Violet Rothko"--in my book, it's about as perfect as a story gets.  --JOSEPH FREDA, author, Suburban GuerillasThis collection is a refreshingly honest look at humanity, the intricacies and simplicities that make us people, with some light moments and some darker threads. --GEMMA ROMAN, Gemma Roman BooksComplex, sad, and laugh-out-loud funny, often at the same time. --Martinez News-Gazette      Product Description      A shy barista dates a quirky customer, until something unexpected upends her world. A waiter dishes on the privileged suburbanites who pile into his chi-chi restaurant on Tuesday nights. Only the closest few know the true colors of a famous movie star and humanitarian--and they wish they didn't. A group of rootless young people move through days of total nihilism, until one decides being an artist's model is the highest calling imaginable. Life appears picture-perfect for two newlyweds--until she's confronted with a revelation that leaves her the choice of ending their marriage or moving forward. These are intimate, sometimes funny, sometimes sad stories that reflect the zeitgeist of today.      About the Author      John Grabowski has always been interested in the vagarities of human nature. After working in advertising, public relations, and television news, he decided he wanted to write about people in entertaining, sometimes complex stories that often boast neither heroes nor anti-heroes, and reflect the real world.When he's not writing, he enjoys travel, chess, classical music, and jazz. His first novel, Entertaining Welsey Shaw, was praised by Kirkus Reviews for being witty, fast-paced, and "filled with flirtatious banter." He is currently working on a novel about the dotcom mania in the San Francisco Bay Area. He is married and lives in Northern California.</p>
