| "Double Talk tells the story of Violet Budd and Brian (Baby) Power, two characters fleeingfrom their past. Brian is ambling after an immigrant's dream, and Violet is desperate to ditchher middle class origins for something more earthy and bohemian. Their contrary social andgeographical flight paths intersect in St. John's, Newfoundland in the early 1980s, where, for atime, they find love, sex, and a safe haven in each other.No happy-ever-after story, Double Talk follows Violet and Brian over a fourteen-year period,starting at the end instead of the beginning, as the ordinary pressures of life bring to the surfacethe many differences that exist between them. Double Talk is a coming-of-age novel, a love storyand an examination of social class and its mysterious codes." |
