Someday Everything Will All Make Sense

Its rare to find a character like Luther van der Loon who makes such a rich and lasting impression-so vividly wounded exuberant in characterization. Luther embodies the anxious angst-ridden neurotic we are afraid we will become or maybe who we aspire to be. In his grief over his mothers accidental choking vis-à-vis death his obsession with what is the point of life is simultaneously heartbreaking and hilarious. I could read this novel a hundred times and never tire of it. - Amy E. Wallen Author of When We Were Ghouls: A Memoir of Ghost StoriesAn original and very funny novel about a mans obsessive longing and guilt after his mother accidentally chokes on wonton soup. We follow the endearing protagonist through a period of morning cleverly interwoven with musical theory and an attempt to sue the Chinese take-out restaurant all brought to a hilarious finale with a last symposium on medieval music. - Sheila Kohler Author of numerous award-winning novels
