Readers of this novel will think Nabokov, Joyce, Ellison. Billie Holiday’s voice keens over them all as the hero, born in Memphis, confronts his collective past. Only through his love for an ambiguous German woman he meets in Venezuela, and the love of Sophia, her original, is this ordinary mortal reborn to his courage to be and love.

“The author’s expertise as a therapist strongly influenced by Jung may be at play in this interplay of shadow and light. The love that enlightens the main characters is a divine love that plays and dances in the human heart. Sophia and the Gringo takes the reader on a journey into the truth of love and has her dancing all the way there.”
