- Summary
- Every young man has his Julia May Turrell: the impossibly charismatic, intractable first love whose reckless affections can dismantle a life utterly. Nick is smart. Nick is witty. And - arguably - Nick is no fool. Yet Julia's sudden reappearances leave him dumb with devotion, dizzy with lust.
- In the unforgettable voice of Nick, and the ineffable force of Julia, Max Phillips has created a stirring hymn to romantic desperation, a novel that resounds equally with the sweetness of youth and the asperity of hard-won wisdom. Snakebite Sonnet is both achingly sad and laugh-out-loud funny, and it will linger in the mind long after its poignant conclusion.
