Download Dirty Love AudioBook Free
In this heartbreakingly beautiful e book of disillusioned intimacy and continual yearning, beloved and celebrated publisher Andre Dubus III explores the bottomless needs and persistent weaknesses of folks seeking gratification in food and gender, work and love. In these associated novellas where characters go out the back door of one story and in to the next, love is "dirty" - tangled up with need, ability, boredom, ego, dread, and fantasy. In the Massachusetts coast north of Boston, a controlling manager, Symbol, discovers his wife's infidelity after 25 years of relationship. An overweight young girl, Marla, gains an enchanting partner but loses her innocence. A philandering bartender/aspiring poet, Robert, betrays his pregnant better half. And in the beautiful subject novella, a teenage lady known as Devon, fleeing a filthy image of her placed online, seeks respect in the eyes of her widowed great-uncle Francis and of an Iraq vet she's met browsing the Web. Slivered by enjoyment and discontent, maturing and death, but also continual desire and forgiveness, these attractively wrought narratives communicate astonishing tenderness toward humans, our prone hearts and physiques, our fulfilling and unfulfilling lives by themselves and with others.
