"His new novel is the story of Jimmy who has been deserted by his lover, a prostitute by the name of Gloria. In the despair of his lonliness and his drunken grief, he reassembles Gloria's presence out of whatever he can buy from the hookers on the street - the fragments of their lives and dreams and locks of hair they are willing to share for a price."
