ALMOST RAPIST
After her parents lose their house in the mortgage crisis and spend six months living in an extended stay motel, Jöyce, a recent NYU acting school graduate and lapsed cult member, takes a Craigslist job assisting an Oscar and Grammy winning jingle composer following his near-deadly stroke, on what turns out to be the eve of his Supreme Court rape trial. While her employer laments his physical recovery as the sole obstacle to an artistic and romantic comeback, Jöyce unravels accumulating sexual-assault charges from newspaper articles as reporters appear near his Upper East Side apartment. Legal inquiries...surveillance...deception...murder...greed...old classmates hired as private investigators...all converge in this stunning dark humor debut memoir about a diametrically opposite, impossibly fated odd couple forced to grapple with the dark side of the entertainment industry against the backdrop of the Great Recession.
