About the Book

Fiction. Love and its pain. Sex and its satisfactions. The joys of both. MOSTLY MADLY is about a young journalist who is mourning the loss of first love and the women who remedy him at their own pleasure and peril. Tommy Risk is a man in transition, moving on from his girlfriend of five years, Jess, a cool fashion model, into a world of sex and love which revives him and enhances his understanding of women. He had treated Jess like a goddess, only to earn disdain as she attempted to shame him into someone he wasn't. With his newfound freedom from emotional oppression, he reengages as a man who treats women the way women have taught him to treat women. Tommy quits his newspaper job and moves to the Villa Spaghetti to work on his first novel. We meet Felicia, an archaeologist who does not believe in monogamy and whom Tommy has loved since they met five years earlier. There is Justine, an aggressive feminist who Tommy suspects is intent on riding him until he can't walk. And Layne is a young art student who is exploring her sexuality with the force of an innocent. In the end, love heals love, and what Tommy thinks about women includes a lot of what he is not thinking about women."

About the Author :
Patrick Fealey was born in New York City in 1967 and grew up in southern Rhode Island, where he became an award- winning reporter for The Standard Times, The Narragansett Times, and a correspondent for The Boston Globe. After interviewing thousands of people, from the man in the street, to celebrities, to Presidential candidates, flying with the Navy Seals and writing an acclaimed piece on Luciano Pavarotti, he quit journalism at the age of 29. While living in rooming houses, a welfare hotel, on friends' couches, and in a church, struggling with manic- depression and poverty, he produced 13 books, of which MOST MADLY is the first to be published. For two decades, his fiction and poetry have been published by leading avant garde journals, including The Wormwood Review, Chiron Review, Ginosko, and Slipstream. His work has been included in two anthologies and an excerpt of his second novel, threading, will be published in Letters to Los Angeles by Pale House Books in the summer of 2012. Also an accomplished musician, he performed twice at the Newport Jazz Festival, opening for Miles Davis. He lives in northern California.
