Noah's Turn

Noah's Turn is the darkly humorous story of Noah Douglas,a failed television writer who is intensely jealous ofa more successful friend. Jobless, wifeless, Noah drifts throughthe cold winter, alternately drinking, visiting an elderly auntwhom he hopes will die and leave him money, and sleepingwith whomever will have him. But it isn't until Noah findshimself at a pivotal moment of envy that he crosses the linebetween humanity and depravity and murders his successfulfriend with a machete. Noah must deal with the mental anguishand moral dilemmas -- and surprising lack of remorse -- overthe murder, for which he seems not to be a suspect. Well-paced, funny, with Finkleman's trademark sharp observationson vanity and hubris, Noah's Turn is a short masterpiece.>
