women and whiskey

a novel

by eric maus

Most guys want to be a womanizer. This is what it’s like to be one.

Ever been in love with two people at the same time? Danny Clark has. He's been in love with every woman he's ever met.

A bellboy scribbling verses on cocktail napkins, Danny Clark thinks he's the next Shakespeare. Really he is a drunk with a gift for bad decisions — and the married woman across the bar might be his worst one yet.

Women and Whiskey is a brutally honest journey into the psyche of an egotistical seducer and his downfall.

Danny Clark is the man you'll love to hate.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.
