To escape the failure of a marriage his wife no longer wants and a business that no longer stirs his soul, Jamie Richards runs away to a Caribbean island, where he becomes the salt-crusted, barefoot skipper of the excursion catamaran The Do Over. Along the way, he candidly questions many of the cultural and sexual truisms of his past life, finding that many are no more than myths. JR Ingrisano's Captain Jolly's Do Over is a character-driven novel of redemption and relationships, with echoes of Hunter S. Thompson's The Rum Diary and the stories of William Faulkner's Yoknapatawpha County. It is the ultimate escape fantasy, a novel of myths wrapped in hard-core truths about modern relationships. Long after you are done, the characters will stay with you, and you'll find yourself missing them. I especially liked, in an odd way, Patti the Beast. - Jo Roderick, author of The Aeonosphere. Congratulations on an artistic success that deserves to be followed by the commercial kind. --Eric Anderson
