Publisher's Synopsis
Most of Us Are Here Against Our Will is a strikingly accomplished début collection about love, loss, sex and survival in the hard heart of Texas. 'Set mostly in Texas, these are sensitive and complicated stories, subtly shaded and at their best when pushing towards redemption' Metro 'Remarkable. Levinson's characters - out of work actors, unsuccessful writers, drug addicts, cheating lovers, a porn movie director - are haunted by memories of their past, while standing on the edge of potentially life-changing decisions' Juice 'There's something as raw and frightening and egotistical in these men and women as Homeric heroes . Levinson's world is acetylene hot' Edmund White
