Silverman: The Music. The Women. The Marriage.

by K. Wergland

Eight years after Ben Silverman left his band on the altar of stardom, Da Funk reunites at the Roseland, in New York City. A record deal appears. Drawn back into the fast and loose world of funk, Ben encounters Alison, a long-lost love. Meanwhile, his wife, Ingrid, grapples with her own dark past. At her side is Ethan, a college friend. Before long, the marriage explodes, with heartbreaking consequences. Ben must confront the problems of his life, his music, and his legacy to his children—or risk losing everything that matters to him.

Tragic, sexy, and funny, this exuberant page-turner from Best New American Voices nominee K. Wergland asks the question of what it means to be a man in the here and now—and answers with empathy and wit.
