On a shelf in our basement rests a box covered in once-beautiful wrapping paper. It is a rather large box filled to over-flowing with letters – love letters my husband wrote to me after he had graduated from college and I was still on campus.

My Frank Mattituck Series has several characters who have earned their way into permanent slots in the series. Pretty good, considering one was intended to be the town drunk who would be in one scene only, and another, a hotel manager, who was originally going to be killed in the shoot-em-up scen...

This part of the allegory is truly one of the more vivid and compelling shots at American culture as we know it. The context of the great tree is that it is surrounded by a village of individualistic homes that reflect the personality of the owners. So here we have a chopped up tree trunk in the...

Today I need your help on my latest project. Call me mad, call me stupid, but I am thinking of writing another book. It would be in English -of course-, and it would be a French political thriller (chick lit style). What do you think? Would you read a book like this?

When I entered her, she held on to her tits, tightly, as if to say, you can have the cunt, but the tits are mine. It was a fair bargain. I was more interested in what was inside her, anyway. How tight, how wet, how slippery, how crazy my cock would make her, when it was all the way in? And I was...

Interview with Tom Perrotta
Fresh off the series finale of HBO's adaptation of The Leftovers, Perrotta is back with a look at sex and midlife second-guessing. "I'm very interested in sex and the way that ideas about sex and what's permissible keep changing. So the fun of the book is to take a middle-aged person and plunge them into what is a youthful world of dating and sex," he says....more
