Description
Louis is on the run from his memories - and himself. But Ida, his tormented lover, wants revenge and a place in the sun.
An elaborately plotted, literary crime noir of betrayal, murder, and redemption.
Louis, Ida, and their circle, all live on society's fringes: victims of humiliation, cruelty, and the medicalization of difference.
They've been left atomized, cynical, and lonely - even exploiting each other - while variously seeking happiness via everything from religion to medication, sex, and fame.
In desperation, they turn to crime.
This newly revised version of The Aching Lust for Crime moves between dark humour, social satire, and tragedy.
