Love Isn't Everything, It's The Only Thing

Harry is a genius who can figure out anything intellectual, but elementary aspects of life elude him. Alisa's beauty is devastating and her beguiling personality shames her looks. Harry and Alisa have each been given gifts which average individuals can only dream of, but their lives are abominations because each is fatally flawed.

Harry cannot abandon his obsessive scholarship even though life is passing him by. He has a dark past, sociopathic tendencies, is incapable of forgiveness. Alisa lacks the courage to leave a husband she doesn't love, and lives only for her children and the moment. She is an addict, liar, thief, pathological adulterer--and the most captivating woman Harry has ever met.

Harry knows he can never be with Alisa, but is unable to resist her. Alisa's life is a kaleidoscope of booze and drugs, and to obtain precious time with her, Harry has no choice but to become part of the blur. Thus begins his inexorable Stumble Towards Oblivion. . .
