The Perturbation of O - Paperback

by Joseph G. Peterson (Author)

The Perturbation of O tells the comic story of how a loser became a winner with the publication of his memoir, Gideon's Confession, and the chaotic aftermath that the book and an encounter with Oprah Winfrey have had on two people: Gideon Anderson and Regina Blast, a woman about whom Gideon wrote intimately in his memoir.
Told mostly in a single conversation between Gideon and Regina as they sit on a spring morning drinking coffee and eating pastries, The Perturbation of O deals with concepts of fame and intimacy, and who has the right to speak about whom.
