The Novel (a memoir)

The Novel (a memoir) "All my life I had been looking for something and everywhere I turned someone tried to tell me what it was. I accepted their answers too, though they were often in contradiction and even self-contradictory. I was naïve. I was looking for myself and asking everyone except myself questions which I, and only I, could answer. It took me a long time and much painful boomeranging of my expectations to achieve a realization everyone else appears to have been born with: That I am nobody but myself."

This is Vincent. The Novel (a memoir) is an adult literary novel/memoir told from multiple narrative POVs, centered around Vincent and his attempt to find his way through a Rabbi, the Bible, Pastor, a married woman, and Hollywood.
