    Sinners: The Incest Project

    About this ebook

    The novel gives a search by an English prof. (Jim Truebig) through the past histories of two friends who do not know each other. He suspects similar past histories, and comes to believe that they did indeed share in some terrible experiences. They suffered--and he comes to a realization of that. Both were incest-victims: he must learn to think about that. The novel is a story of how he goes about doing this: Stella May Jones and Osvaldo Burroughs come through vividly in the process--first-rate people hobbled by early-life trauma.

    This is an anti-incest book.

    Edward Loomis

    "FRANK GOAD is a retired beach volleyball player, an artist manqué, a barely published writer, a marginal but occasionally successful progenitor of performance art, a very early and accidental dj, a runner-turned-jogger-turned-walker, and an occasional lightweight lifter. He lives in rented digs in Santa Barbara with his diffficult girlfriend and her lazy, sullen, lordly son, and gleans a living by making graphic designs on his computer. His pets have died." "EDWARD LOOMIS is a writer and audio artist, and a collaborator on the Goadian audio projects. His best known work is THE CHARCOAL HORSE, a novel, "A Kansas Girl," a story, and ADVICE TO THE LOVELORN, an audio tape. In recent years he has been working on a non-fiction book on Spain, and translating the poems of Rubén Darío and the brothers Machado."
