Isaac Lopes is a cynical, secretive, intelligent, teenager with scathing wit and a sacrilegious view of the world around him.

An offbeat and satirical work of what might be considered literary fiction, The Chronicles of a Cynic is a loosely allegorical spin on Dante’s Purgatorio.This contemporary bildungsroman follows the unlikely path of the title character-a writer/educator named Dan Taylor-Gehry-across the country to teaching jobs, through loves gained and lost, against encounters with the seven deadly sins, amidst moderate success in writing and publishing, and ultimately downward through his darkest psychological recesses. The cynic’s frenetic pace matches the transience of Kerouac’s Sal Paradi

This small book of quotations offers a collection of sometimes humorous cynicism on romance for the skeptical, spurned, or curmudgeonly people of the world: Love is a big, bright, blue balloon -- in a world full of straight pins. The first lover’s sigh says good-bye to good sense. Love doesn’t make the world go round, it makes it dizzy.
