A Thing (or Two) About Curtis and Camilla

A Thing (or Two) About Curtis and Camilla

by NickFowler (Author)

Synopsis

It is springtime in SoHo when Curtis, rock-star wannabe, first lays eyes on gangly, gorgeous Camilla and her matchmaking daschund - and New York is transformed from a grey city to colourful metropolis. Camilla becomes Curtis' obsession, muse and the reason he does in fact need a record contract (and some health insurance). As their too brief Love Story runs its rocky course, Fowler's ruefully funny and outstandingly original novel reveals what young love - and its demise - it all about.
