Inhaltsangabe

"Brilliant. Darryl Whetter's style gleams like a rare and fresh metal. Here, in a ride we haven't seen taken, is a daunting, all-terrain, solo journey to the heart." -- Bill Gaston, author of Sointula

"Darryl Whetter's The Push & The Pull is a brash, vibrant, melancholy, sexy, and finally uplifting book about a mesmerizing father, the son who can't tear himself away, and the women who make them grow up. Whetter is intoxicated with language. He writes like a dream in a quick, urbane, and witty style. His women are gorgeous independent creatures; his men are large and infuriating; and when love happens it's explosive, passionate, and grand." -- Douglas Glover, author of Elle
