October People

Ill tell you how I met my wife. At times a fable. At times allegory. At times documentary. At times a psychological portrait. October People chronicles the final year of the obscure relationship of Natalie and Clarence Forward. Telescoping a decade into a year, a year into brief instances and two personalities into the landscape of ideal commingled with detail the novel makes comment on the state of the modern soul-passion confused with identity. Evoking both Joycean exactness and the obfuscations of Mamets moral dialogues, October People works its way toward a poignant and affecting climax. The peril the novel introduces is not in the fear that one may lose oneself but in the suggestion that one may not want oneself back. October People is an unflinching portrayal of the state of identity-individual and coupled. Both alluding to and diverging from the structural exactness of Camus and Hamsun, the novel leaves man naked not in the face of the absurd, but in reflection of itself. I suppose. Yes. I wanted to fall in love.Gonzalez-Fernandez, Pablo is the author of 'October People' with ISBN 9781592864683 and ISBN 1592864686.
