THE MAN WHO DIDN'T LIKE KISSES

A character who changes face, body, age, and form, appearing in distant places and times. This is Horace Catskill, the fascinating protagonist of THE MAN WHO DIDN'T LIKE KISSES, a novel of mirrors by Edward Pimenta. With prose that flows from colloquial to sophisticated with absolute ease, the author presents us with the various facets of a typical modern antihero. Horace Catskill—or HC, as Pimenta often calls him—could be an American having an affair with the young and still unknown Madonna, a pedophile priest, a two-headed Japanese soldier unaware that World War II is over, or an Argentine boxing champion being mourned.
