Spin
Thursday Aug 20, 2009 (7–8:30pm)
Robert Rave presents and signs Spin: A Novel
Taylor Green is a corn-fed young man from the Midwest who, through being at the right place at the right time, gets hired by New York public relations dominatrix, Jennifer Weinstein. Taylor soon becomes Jennie's right-hand man, getting drawn into her world of sex, greed, power, and fame. As the perks of his job—such as rubbing elbows with big-name celebrities, getting reservations at the hottest restaurants, and receiving free designer clothes—increase, he soon finds himself struggling to balance his own reality with that of her drug-fuelled, high-intensity world. After unwittingly carrying Jennie's drugs through airport security, buying porn for a well-paying PR client, and walking in on Jennie and another man doing it on her office desk, Taylor must choose to either leave the cutthroat PR industry, and his new glamorous, morally-compromising lifestyle, or let his life continue to spin totally out-of-control. Spin is a scandalous and candid page-turner packed with fame, romance, and revenge. (St. Martin's Press)
