Not a Love Story
()
About this ebook
This powerful debut novel is, primarily, a look at human love-lust and how it can manifest itself. But it is also a detailed description of how a lovely place turns into what is now generically called a “tourist trap,” as well as a book with a worldview that is a pivotal part of its discourse. If one reads this book with all these levels of thought in mind, then it should be a worthwhile experience.
