Althea: The Divorce of Adam and Eve

by Juan Alonso

A clear, beautiful, outrageously funny story about a Boston Irishman's love for the most spectacular Yankee murderess since Lizzie Althea Stanton. As X.J. Muldoon goes off on an unforgettable sexual and spiritual journey through Boston, it becomes the telling of a cosmic event "no less significant than the The divorce of Adam and Eve within our souls."

This was a book published by one of fiction teachers in college. I bought it while taking the class but never read it. I also liked the title because that's one of my favorite Grateful Dead songs.
