women and whiskey
a novel
by eric maus
A story of seduction and self-destruction. For those who love to indulge in chaos. Taking place in a college town, a womanizing poet, with a job at a three-star hotel, revels in late nights and avoiding his long-term girlfriend.
Danny Clark, aging out of the college scene, spills his heart across the page, drunk and yearning for something more, but he doesn’t know what. Maybe it’s another woman he needs, like the one across the bar right now. She can fix him. Or she might be the one who finally makes his carefree world crumble.

While the main character is nuanced, elements/thoughts of his are relatable to people (approaching or) in their 30's who are experiencing life, in long term relationships and in the dating pool.

It was a genuinely engaging read and at times hard to put down because I wanted to see what kind of trouble the main character would get himself into next. The story mixes humor with darker emotional moments, and the author leans into a lyrical, metaphor rich prose style that many readers will appreciate.

This was a book I couldn't put down. I found myself reading faster and faster trying to figure out what other chaos this man could get into. The story had a perfect ending.
