Description
The Connor Project is a novel that chronicles the life and loves of David Connor, a television journalist turned visual artist, over a twenty-year period. At his lowest point—his marriage defunct, his family broken, his career a shambles — Connor lurches zombie-like through his life, looking for something he can no longer name. By turns poignant and wry, funny and bittersweet, The Connor Project will resonate with anyone who has survived heartbreak and earned redemption.
