Paperback. English. Serpent's Tail. 1999. In good condition.
To prove himself worthy of her love, a son of Aphrodite descends to earth in Coney Island. He encounters the mortal Stanley Short-Sleeves, who, after a reunion with two buddies, claims to want to make his way home to his waiting wife. Assuming the shape of one of these friends, Aphrodite’s son delivers Stanley from many perils, including the treacherous subway and the underworld beneath, a bewitching Voodoo dancer, a drug dealer whose turf Stanley unwittingly transgresses, strange women unaccountably besotted with him, and one woman he knows all too well. But the greatest obstacle to his homeward journey could well lie in his own divided heart. This swift, hilarious adventure, written in the epic style of Homer, sweeps the reader through late-night New York City, exploring the many faces of modern love.
