Hot Tamale Baby

Autor Charles F. Breaux
en Limba Engleză Paperback
Jack Broussard retired as a New Age guru and past life therapist to the Olympic Peninsula. Within the year his French wife divorced him and both his parents died. Jack turns to the local Cajun dance and music scene for solace after his mid-life crisis, which in turn led to a road-trip to dance-halls of Louisiana and his Cajun roots. He meets Liz before leaving and invites her to join him on his odyssey. Liz calls it a sentimental journey when they visit places Jack lived en route to a Cajun festival in the Bay Area -- Jack's old stomping grounds. Liz can't dance; she jumps ship and Jack descends into "Jack's Inferno" in Fellini-like flashbacks to his good ole days, poignant and humorous, stalked by the ghost of True Love. Floundering in the Bay Area dance-scene "urban camping" in his mini-motor home Jack meets Gita. Hoping to foster their romance, he cajoles her into a past life regression to when they were lovers. But when Jack learns his house and property back home have burned to the ground he has a meltdown and hatches a scam to get "crazy" money by committing himself. He's in for a big surprise and his folly fits him like a straightjacket several sizes too small. While searching for a way to escape from the loony bin he begins having OBE's to a future life as a woman. Jack is psychonaut and his worldview is out of this world. Some say Jack is a know-it-all or a paranoid conspiracy theorist. Liz says he's brilliant but crazy; Gita is suspect. Jack Nicholson is one of his role models and he quotes Bob Dylan relentlessly. Some might claim Jack's story is science fiction; Jack would bet on if "it's you or him that's insane."
