Description
Ziggy's search for identity and connection is a raw and unflinching exploration of the human need for possession and the blurring of boundaries between desire and abuse. This taut and rhythmic novel examines the motivations of those around him, from his two fathers to his junkie friend, in a quest to isolate and define the complexities of sexuality and attraction. Through prose that is both charged and precisely controlled, Dennis Cooper probes the depths of human need, illuminating the need to claim and possess something that will fulfill the profound emptiness of the human soul. With Try, Cooper has produced a novel that is both complex and startlingly familiar in its examination of love, obsession, and devotion.
