Loved by his students, but never loved by a woman. Respected by everyone in the community, but never respected as an author. This novel will chronicle Max's persistent efforts to get one of his novels published, as well as his persistent efforts to find love. I don't have many other details, I just began writing this tonight. This is the opening to the novel, where we find Max furiously typing away the beginnings of another novel late at night. thogg15 http://www.booksie.com/thogg15 Forever Indebted http://www.booksie.com/literary_fiction/novel/jennifer_brighton/forever-indebted/chapter/1 2013-05-17T03:07:33 PM-01:00 Beautiful Charlotte finds herself in a sticky situation...

Two major literary influences on it are Joyce's 'Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man' and Dostoyevsky's 'Notes From Underground'. It is about the struggle of a man to come to terms with his abusive family, his guilt-inducing religion, and his antipathy towards his own country. His 'friends' lure him into a life of alcohol and drug use; the numerous descriptions of drug trips, dreams, and other surreal moments will cause readers to wonder about his mental stability.
