Rene Bonvillain is walking through the French Quarter to his bookstore when his world simply disappears. For just a timeless moment, he finds himself surrounded by bright light in a world where nothing is tangible, not even himself. The next time Rene briefly finds himself in and out of that other world of white silence, he returns to discover that a handsome stranger named Jacob has followed him back. Jacob becomes Rene's mentor and companion, walking with him through the everydayness of his life and trying to cajole him into the realization that his life is a good one. Haunted by memories of his lover and isolated from his friends and family, Rene learns to trust Jacob's guiding hand on the path to rediscovering meaning and happiness. Sometimes dramatic, often funny, and always engrossing, what unfolds is a tale of two men who begin their journey from different worlds but find themselves surprised by deep-rooted, unnerving commonality. Through laughter and tears, both men must confront enshrouded, startling truths that have risen to torment them. Together they find the strength to grapple with their demons. Readers may find themselves laughing or crying as they ponder the nature of love and friendship. Simultaneously lighthearted and provocative, "Angel" is an existential frolic through modern life and an exposition that love is eternal and that good and evil are not always easily defined.
