The Language of Love and Loss

Om The Language of Love and Loss

"As it turns out, you can go home again. But sometimes, you really, really don't want to... Home, for Noah York, is Oakland, New Hampshire, the sleepy little town where Noah's mother, Virginia, had a psychotic breakdown and Noah got beaten to a pulp as a teenager. Then there were the good times -- and Noah's not sure which ones are more painful to recall. Now thirty-seven and eking out a living as an artist in Providence, Rhode Island, Noah looks much the same -- and swears just as colorfully -- as he did in high school. Virginia has become a wildly successful poet who made him the subject of her most famous poem, "The Lost Soul," a label Noah will never live down. And J.D., the one who got away -- because Noah stupidly drove him away -- is in a loving marriage with a successful, attractive man whom Noah despises wholeheartedly. Is it any surprise that Noah wishes he could ignore his mother's summons to come visit? But Virginia has shattering news to deliver, and a request he can't refuse. Soon, Noah will track down the sister and extended family he never knew existed, try to keep his kleptomaniac cousin out of jail, feud with a belligerent neighbor, confront J.D.'s jealous husband -- and face J.D. himself, the ache from Noah's past that never fades... All the while, contending with his brilliant, unpredictable mother. [...] The Language of Love and Loss is a story about growing older, getting lost -- and finding your way back to the only truths that really matter." --
