"Richard House's sad, beautifully crafted novel is a triumph of story telling. His engaging characters leave the reader both astonished and hopeful. Here is an amazing writer." - David Sedaris
Bruiser is the story of a love between two men wary of emotional commitment. Adrian fends for himself as a waiter, boxer and hustler until he meets Paul, a lonely British expatriate old enough to be his father. Rejecting their lives in Chicago, they embark on a road trip to Brazil. On the journey, they both find that they cannot abandon the fear of intimacy.
Richard House's first novel is a sensual portrayal of lives lived on the margins.
Genre: Literary Fiction
