Description
With sharp characterization and humor, this novel tells the story of Sam Keitzer, art restorer, husband, and father of two who has lost his balance to a strain of the flu. The tranquillizer Ativan and a few days rest do nothing for him, while his self-prescribed cure?a mix of sexual desire and good intentions?precipitates his fall.

“Toronto writer Stephen Zeifman’s all knowing narration holds us . . . building a replete and absorbing portrait of a formidable male ego on the skids.” —Jim Bartley, Globe and Mail, on The Family Man
