Novel Description:
Michael Stolis, a DC attorney, is
frustrated by twelve hour work days, tightly scheduled weekends and his
family's chaotic habits. He explodes over minor irritations like being stuck in
traffic, and his tantrums need to stop. His disillusioned wife, Jamie, is sick
of his anger outbursts, and wants him out of her life. Michael longs to
reignite the passionate love they once felt for each other. Jamie prefers to
spend her time fostering illicit Internet relationships. Michael had simply
followed his Greek father's instructions for a successful life, but something
went terribly wrong. A lucrative career, a Georgetown brownstone and a BMW
coupe didn't deliver happiness as promised.
When his family is about to
implode, Michael finds hope through Rufus, an astute retired bus driver he
meets over a game of blitz chess in Dupont Circle. Michael is intrigued by
Rufus's prescription for fulfillment, but is it too late to change a life,
chase a dream, revive a marriage? Michael must decide how much he is prepared
to lose if he embarks on a quest so very different from the world he created.
Touching, romantic, and deeply provocative, A Stop in the Park, follows
the story of a man and a woman who yearn to escape the trap of the modern
American dream.
