Becoming Bobby
No Customer Reviews
In Becoming Bobby, Michael Konik's debut novel, the best-selling author of three acclaimed gambling-story collections, including The Man with the $100,000 Breasts, brings his vast knowledge of the casino world--and the desperate and delusional characters who inhabit it--to the pages of a story that is by turns viciously funny and disturbingly provocative. The dark chronicle of one man's cataclysmic descent into mid-life crisis, a contemporary Humbert Humbert, inspired by his TV hero, impulsively trades his middle-aged, cul de sac-of-an-existence for the fantasy life of a Vegas-style high roller. But when his luck runs out, the obsessive quest to "be like Bobby" brings some dark and twisted implications.
