Elevator Music is a virtuoso performance by the best-selling author of novels Biflocka and A Lion in Your Number. It is the story of you, _______, a young man who has 24 hours to live. You have to decide what you will do in that expanse of time. One of the things you desire most is confessing a long-lived love to the elusive, generous, unstable Shelby, a South Floridian dame. Struggling to stay sane, you persevere with Shelby, implementing all the things you have desired to do. But the festivities of a "good-time" extinguish when Shelby figures out your death-wish tendencies . . . and you, _______, have to overcome the suborn mindset of ending this hellish life, or living it out with your new-found love.
Kevin Klix is a self-proclaimed amateur philosopher and is the author of novels BIFLOCKA, WASP IN THE OPIUM FLOWERS, and A LION IN YOUR NUMBER, along with several works of non-fiction and one collection of poetry. He lives and works in West Palm Beach, Florida.
I skimmed over a lot of the party scenes, but thought the book was interesting. A few errors throughout the story, but I'm not the type to criticize too harshly for that. I didn't really get into the book until closer to the end, but I wanted to find out what was going to happen from the very beginning. This book makes you stop and think. A lot of people suffer from depression. Some people can choose to be happy and make it happen, but it doesn't work that way for some. Some struggle everyday to just function in everyday life.
