A manifesto of love, the mirror of a budding writer's soul, or a textbook on sexual infatuation?

Since he was young, Greg Sydor has wanted nothing more than to become a writer; for him, writing is a necessity. New York, the birthplace of so many famous authors, is both his inspiration and his curse. His ability to create depends entirely on Jennifer, an unpredictable woman who suddenly enters his life. The initial light-heartedness dissolves into a love quadrangle and culminates in a fateful drama. Both writing and not writing, the first experiences with love and inner darkness, are all reflected in the struggle between reality and texts – dialogues, letters, dream records, books within a book. All this offers the reader clues on how to navigate the whirlwind of events, or whether to simply stand at a crossroads and wait to see where the plot will take them. Nothing and no one here is clear-cut, events are not flat or silent records of the plot, and the characters are not predictable puppets: on the contrary, in both original and archetypal masks, they will appear to the reader in an image that they themselves piece together.
A Faustian myth set in New York? What is real and what are just words? Where is the line between sensitivity and numbness? Four characters, or just the faces of love?
