Duet Quartet

A college Junior woman (Miriam) and an incoming Freshman boy (Peter) develop a relationship while never actually meeting through the first two-thirds of the novel. They communicate first through prose poetry then a two-character Podcast drama reminiscent of A. J. Gurney's Love Letters hence Duet. The next three short stories a novella and a dénouement conclude the work introducing a feisty Long Island Graduating High School Senior (Gina) and Peter's troubled 15-year-old sister Lucy hence Quartet. The interweaving of literary styles and points of view compare and contrast in a literary symphony.
