Description

Queen of Angels contrasts Shakespeare with gritty and profane 1970s New York, exploring themes of love, sex, violence, death, faith and coming of age: "These violent delights have violent ends." The novel captures the angst of teenage love striving for maturity within the context of a high-school production of Romeo and Juliet, crossing the precarious border between flesh and fantasy experienced and observed by the author as a Brooklyn teenager. "Not only is the novel a compelling exploration of young love, it's a gripping piece of storytelling." --Publishers Weekly
