Product Description

Synopsis
'Stealing Heaven From The Lips Of God' is a love story for the 21st Century, told through the medium of an Internet journal or 'blog', as cyberspace junkies call it. Afforded anonymity by the World Wide Web, Robbie uses his journal to explore his newfound love with Catherine, to confess his past and attempt to atone for his sins. In so doing he manages to pull himself out of the rut he's been in for the past five years, allowing his relationship with Catherine to develop. But the course of love is never smooth, and in Robbie's case, given his tendencies towards self-destruction, it proves to be a white-knuckle, nightmare trip.

Gritty but touching, 31 Jan 2005

By	Sam Vaknin "author of books about narcissisti... (Skopje, Macedonia) - See all my reviews

'Stealing Heaven From The Lips Of God' is a grainy, black and white portrait of personal disintegration and reassembly, death and resurrection, alienation through relationships, and the art of self-consumption. It is unmistakably "bloggish" - a journal of immediate pain and urgent self-discovery. It glitters and is drenched in urban smells and sounds and expletives. It is a remarkably poignant love story with a happy end and a tragic rest and a lot of pornish sex. Like an expressionistic film, it is both hallucinatory and exquisitely detailed and like a film noir, it keeps you on edge and guessing. It is not easy to love the protagonist (the inevitable question: is it autobiographical?) and all but impossible to hate or judge him. This book is also a medieval morality play and the anti-hero gets his comeuppance as we grieve for the lives - his and those around him - that he so cavalierly shatters. Buy it now, before the author regrets his morbid generosity ...Sam Vaknin, author of "Malignant Self Love - Narcissism Revisited"
