Adrift: a Novel

Life in Nyack, New York had become a repetitive bore for Aaron Adams since graduating from college, weeks turning into months with little distinguishing one from the next. When a personal tragedy changed Aaron's existence, he began to reexamine his life and realized he must make a major change or be forever trapped in a cycle of boredom and depression. So Aaron went away. He chose Italy as his destination by luck and wanted nothing more than a fresh start. He arrived at the Florence airport without knowing the language or culture he was entering and dove further into Italy until he found himself standing on the banks of the Lima in Bagni di Lucca. Once there, he would meet a stranger who would change his life; an unexpected connection bonding them perpetually in ways neither of them could have imagined on Aaron's journey of discovery. Robert Taylor's stunning, witty and emotional debut novel tracks the journey of one man rediscovering who he is and coming to terms with his sexuality against the stunning backdrop of Tuscany in the springtime.
