Publisher's Synopsis
John Novak died in 2014, shortly after publication of his triumphant first novel, The Hot Dog. Three years later, the circumstances surrounding the author's demise remain mysterious. Is he actually dead? If so, how did he die? If not, where is he and why has he been in hiding? This book is both a compendium of Novak's writings and an extended rumination, by the late author's closest friend and biggest supporter, on what really happened to Novak and why. The volume celebrates the author's career, laments what might have been, and speculates on the disappearance of a talented but troubled man.
