Description:

Excerpt from chapter 46:
She stepped into that huge hollowness, imperial and fearless in her bare feet, a beautiful, wild creature in its natural habitat. This basement was as familiar to her as the insides of her mind. She reached out, aware of everything in its place, and pulled on the edge of one ghostly sheet. The sheet slid off, sending clouds of dust into the already dusty air.
"Welcome to the Land of the Dead," she announced.
Dead, dead, dead . . . answered the echo.

The Art of Peeling an Orange, set in sizzling, contemporary West Hollywood, California, is the art of glorifying and eroticizing color. It is a gender-bending, risqué take on the myth of Orpheus and Eurydice. The story's powerful structure, colorful characters, and magical themes echo the ancient Greek myth of the lovers in the Underworld.

What do you do when your lover has eloped with another woman on the eve of your wedding? The other woman is a famous beauty and their love story is splashed all over the tabloids, making you die inside. To add insult to injury, the one who has abandoned you is suddenly bursting with unusual creativity. And when the one you love dies unexpectedly, having left you a cryptic text message suggesting that you were always the one and only, where do you go?

If you are Carly Rosen, a portrait artist with huge imagination, you use your art to charm your way across the inky River Styx and down to the Land of the Dead. There, faced with your greatest fear, you beg the powerful Hades for the life of your beloved.
