For a while it seemed that Lawrence Martin had everything. He was the key-board player in a successful rock band, he had money, his choice of women. It was a long way from the British boarding school where he met Roly, the charismatic front man who lured him to Australia in the first place, and with whom he shared the song-writing. Only after it all went wrong did Lawrence learn they'd been sharing other things as well.
Two decades on, living in the remote highlands of Scotland, he's again confronted with those turbulent years. And with the accident that changed everything.
Are all men emotionally disconnected, Lawrence wonders, unable to join the dots? Does true intimacy bring redemption, or is it the other way round?
Wry, insightful, intelligent, 88 Lines About 44 Women traces the boundaries of shame and how it obstructs the capacity for love.
