The Big No - A Novel: A Novel

Jill Evans is a thirty-seven-year-old woman returning home to live with Mother, with her tail between her legs. After a tumultuous relationship breakup and an unwelcome job transfer, life seems to have ground to an unsatisfying halt. She begins work as a nurse in a psychiatric hospital while experiencing recurrent dreams that stalk her consciousness. The Big No concerns childlike regression, foreboding unlikely reunions, watershed life decisions, and horror. Written as a first person narrative, the novel offers a voice to five different characters, delivering a comic allegory about social activism.
