A Strange Kind of Love — Lawrence Block

A hack writer struggles to restart his career after a love affair turned frigid sends him into an alcoholic tailspin

Dan Larkin is a hack writer who has always found it easy to churn out scripts, empty bottles, and bed young women. But he meets his match in Allison -- a natural blonde who can feel no pleasure. When the sting of unrequited love makes writing impossible, Dan goes into a tailspin that leaves him broke, fired from his job at a Hollywood studio, and on his way back to New York.

Then, between binging on women and rye, Dan gets an idea for the book that's going to set him straight -- assuming he's ready for it.

This ebook features an illustrated biography of Lawrence Block, including rare photos and never-before-seen documents from his personal collection, and a new afterword written by the author.
