Funny, irreverent, knowing, nostalgic and deeply touching, True Romance is a tale of the forbidden love between Diana Cole, a woman in free fall, and the unlikely younger man who saves her life and resurrects her soul. "35,000 words that move like a locomotive through 20 breakneck chapters" ... "the kind of neurotic heroine that Bette Davis made a career out of playing, Diana is hard-drinking, promiscuous and wryly funny - a poster girl for heroines of the train wreck variety" ... " raw, wounding, laden with crisp dialogue and sometimes brutally descriptive, it has unrelenting drive"... "Definitely not your mother's love story..."
