Story
It's been years since Swenson, a professor in a New England creative-writing program, has published a novel. It's been even longer since any of his students have shown promise. Enter Angela Argo, a pierced, tattooed student with a rare talent for writing. Angela is just the thing Swenson needs. Better yet, she wants his help. But, as we all know, the road to hell is paved with good intentions....

at times hilarious; at times brilliant; often painful to listen to because I was so caught up in Sweson’s descent. it was like watching the fly land on Venus fly trap and watching its slow, excruciating envelopement. Bedtime the book was too painful and I had to put it down. On the whole, after taking in the whole story until the end, I’d have to give it a five out of five. There was no way to figure out the plot – certainly not the ending. This is a well written, disturbing novel that was brilliantly written and designed. kudos to the author. However, I don’t think I’ll be seeking out her next novel for a while. This was just too disturbing.
