I Want to Know What Love Is

This confessional reminiscence is part autobiography part self-help therapy and part meditation on love. It is the heart of a journal over three decades of a tormented life. While searching for love the author a failed playwright and a loner leads a secret double life. Publicly he is an English professor but privately a dissolute and self-abusing racetrack tout trapped in a love/hate addiction to the horses. Redemption comes but comes slow and hard. From an editor: Dear Mr. Rosenthal Many thanks for sending your manuscript I WANT TO KNOW WHAT LOVE IS. We publish only plays and musicals for the theater. You will find your manuscript enclosed. I did however read your manuscript. The title entranced me. Once I started reading I could not put it down. What a beautiful piece of work. I apologize for keeping it for so long. But I did not want to part with it! Best wishes on your search for a publisher. Sincerely Donna Cozzaglio Editorial Department I. E. Clark Publications
