Flexible Demons Kevin Gorman

Publisher Marketing: There are those of us who toil endlessly in obscurity for year upon year. Some will break out of their everyday doldrums and achieve a level of enormity reserved for a very special few. Still, others will fight until they have little left to offer. They strive on, convinced that the ride justifies their fate - however bleak. For Francis Kramer, the true cost of the chase may prove too much to handle. While dealing with the steadfast ghosts of a troubled past, Kramer's mind conspires to pull greatness from deep within the darker recesses of his soul. In the process, Frank soon finds that others have taken an interest in his work, however mysterious they may be. A torturous, darkly humorous tale of mental anguish and the unyielding pull of addiction; the story tests the limits people are willing to go to in order to exercise the demons that may exist largely within their own hearts and subconscious minds. The story is a volatile, skewed look into the reader's own reflection. Touching at some points, visceral and frightening at others, FLEXIBLE DEMONS is a highly symbolic novel dealing as much with society's obsession with fame and celebrity, as it does with the troubling abuse of substances that are all too commonplace within our culture. Will Frank be able to ride the fragile wave long enough to complete his masterpiece...and at what cost?
