Casanova 20: Or, Hot World

"This third novel from Davey Davis is also their best, which is saying something – their previous books, The Earthquake Room and X, were both marvels. This one follows two best friends on opposite sides of the U.S. both dealing with loss: Adrian realizes that his legendary beauty is fading, while Mark is confronted with a grim medical diagnosis. Davis’ writing is nothing short of beautiful, and the book is unsparing but compassionate. Novels this great don’t come around very often."
