Almost Home: The New Paltz Novel

"Almost Home by Frank Marcopolos is a fun and fast-paced novel about the seedy side of student life on a college campus in upstate New York-a netherworld, like any college town, where young adults create lives for themselves, yet are too young to realize the consequences of their actions.
Almost Home keeps you in its thrall. The language rings true-and reads seamlessly within each character's alternating chapters. The vivid atmosphere settled me in a sleepy burg where the cultural and social center was the college. The powerful and vivid atmosphere, much the same as when I was in college, although much more hypnotic and alluring, goes further. It seduces one to remain on the cusp of adulthood forever. In Almost Home that powerful temptation seems possible-at the price of selling one's soul."
