About this ebook

George is a Greek-American in his early 20s living in Brooklyn, New York. Unlike his friends, he is not much of a "lady's man". While his friends brag of their sexual conquests, he resorts to introspection. He equates his lack of machismo with his anxiety disorders and chronic depression. He finds some solace in writing, one of his main passions, and through eschatological conversations with his godfather Thomas.



His first sexual experience leaves him believing sex is ideal therapy. Although he has trouble meeting and speaking to women, at times he is able to overcome his social anxiety in order to get sex. As he has more and more sex, hoping to find his cure, his relationships become increasingly outlandish. George begins to define who he is through these anxieties and subsequent perversions, often emulating his Brooklyn buddies instead of becoming his own man and finding his own direction.



This is a story of a young man dealing with anxiety, depression, mortality issues, relationships, and an overbearing and overprotective Greek mother who believes her son will always be The Prince of Brooklyn despite his self-regarded shortcomings.
