Dysphoric Notions

Cigarettes and booze, cigarettes and booze, cigarettes and booze. What does it mean, suddenly, to be a mother fucker? What does it mean to change?

DYSPHORIC NOTIONS addresses this difference: is boring someone to death the same as fucking someone to death?

A bartender, a lawyer, a bookstore owner, a drought crusader, and a traveling chef grace the streets of Dysphoric Denver in this novel of latent self-realization and loss. Every character wants so badly to change, to grow, to leave, and some change by not changing at all. Dysphoric Notions enter the mind during the morning's hangover; after a neighborhood party in Denver, Colorado, and before making love to J.D. Salinger in a dirty sublet apartment just outside of Lisbon, Portugal.
