The Smell of Breath

By Conor McMillen

Written as a long letter to his ex-wife, this novel is a poetic journey of raw emotion with simple and yet, profound truths. It is a complex and mysterious interweaving of first person, third person, conversations and poems, that criss-cross time and space. This book, while focused on what it looks like to be a man lost in a great transition, transcends manhood and expresses what it is to be human on the search for meaning, connection, love and self.Going through a separation with his wife, who had been his partner from the age of 16-28, and learning how to date again, this novel takes the reader on a journey of hope, desperation, darkness and light. The author travels with you to California, Massachusetts, New York, Thailand, and France, sharing stories over the course of two years with roots entangled in past relationships and childhood. This novel will leave you feeling.
