Fiction, North Carolina

Follow Ben Johnson around an Asheville, North Carolina that Thomas Wolfe would not have recognized. Ride along as Ben encounters visions of Zelda Fitzgerald, pagan rituals, a sub-culture embedded in the city’s infrastructure, and fires of unknown origin. Ben becomes enamored by DC, a charismatic drifter with a dark world vision, and he is forced to confront DC’s rejection of culture and the art it produces.

Through Ben’s private  journal entries, learn about his struggle to overcome DC’s destructive cynicism and his pursuit of  an artistic vision. Will Ben follow his own artistic calling, or will he adopt DC’s anti-social lifestyle? Hang on, as these two personalities collide and events spiral out of control.
