Living Without Blood by Graeme Daniels (English) Hardcover Book

Description: Living Without Blood by Graeme Daniels Co-protagonists and old friends Eric Metcalf and Richard Barnes are thirty-something men in an early stage of estrangement from one another. Both are struggling with early-to-mid adulthood: with women, career disappointments, the distance of fathers. Eric is solipsistic yet brave; Richard externalizes with drugs, women, and betrays friends. When Eric chooses a radical change in career, he contemplates severing a long-standing dependency upon his family, but in so doing draws intensified concern due to a self-destructive past. Meanwhile, the alcoholic misadventure of his father leads that character to enter psychotherapy: the subsequent self reflection enables an honest but dangerous reciprocity within the family. Reviews: Graeme Daniels ventures into literary territory that distinctly echoes Henry James in both style and theme. His debut novel, Living Without Blood , explores the phenomena of consciousness, perception, personal relationships, and the shifting balance of power between human beings. Using an imaginative blend of interior monologue, exterior dialogue, and variable points of view, Daniels explores the minds of men teetering on the edge of clandestine maturity. A perfect book for those cerebrally-oriented readers wrestling, like characters Eric Metcalf and Richard Barnes, with the moral conundrum that is 21st century living.
