A Suburb of Monogamy

A Suburb of Monogamy is about the invention, withdrawal, and body of a liaison. An existential tryst with survival and desperation at its core.

A passionate love affair that succumbs to a pain that is not innocent, not victimless. A heroine's shift in perspective, imploding in metaphor, a decade.

Painfully self-aware. Beautiful. Confessional. Hot. Macabre. It's experimental, feminist erotica. One girl's antidote to nihilism is her opera aria.

Nora is a neurotic teenager in the suburbs of Chicago. Under the crushing weight of Catholicism, she takes a lover, one she only loves in her absence. 

She lives in the obsessive, annihilating shadows of complaint and reflection. He's a noir fetish thrown at her feet, another void for her to grind against.

When he's gone, his ghost is voluptuous, all language and heat; such an exhausting illusion to maintain. Yet she can't quit him, and for a while, that's enough. Until it's not.
