Opis

Tim Fulmer's Goddammit Goldsmith My Real Name's Rosenberg exemplifies the manic style of prose, the provocative themes, and the philosophical integrity that are all hallmarks of fiction published by independent publisher Party Crasher Press. The novel serves as an intense character study of Rosenberg, a mentally unstable deadbeat dad, and his relationships with his daughter Amber, his ex-wife Penny, his editor Goldsmith, and other friends and acquaintances in and around San Francisco. The prose style reflects the volatile but disordered mind of a man who effortlessly mixes fantasy with reality but who nonetheless manages to make some sense of his life. The final result is a dramatic dream-scape, sometimes verging on insightful brilliance, other times verging on hallucinatory nonsense, throughout filled with unusual people and exotic ideas that combine to influence Rosenberg and define who he is and why he does what he does. But then - in the novel's final section - the author turns the narrative on its proverbial head, allowing the reader finally to cross the border between insanity and sanity and thus save his own 'reading mind' in the process.
