A wild, sex-and-peyote-fueled road trip through heartbreak and the mythic American West, Fourteen Stories, None of Them Are Yours is a fever dream and cult classic of love, loss, and self-destruction. Goebel's grief-stricken adrenalized alter ego goes on a cross-country search for his sanity--crashing through relationships, memories, and mania from New York to Texas, Puerto Rico to Los Angeles, spiraling through the wreckage of a love affair that won't stay put. Grieving the sudden death of his brother and a past that won't let go, the narrator must rewrite his own story before it devours him. At its heart, this is a raw reckoning with loss, abuse, and madness, told in lyrical prose that feels pulled from the heart of a bard on fire. With echoes of The Dharma Bums, The Chronology of Water, and The Catcher in the Rye, this is an untamed, confessional Künstlerroman--a howl of desire, dislocation, and the burning need to belong to a world that doesn't even exist.
