Publisher's Synopsis
The coming of age of one-eyed, black eyepatch-wearing Stanley "The Torch" Pendowski, a sensitive guy looking for answers and experience. An emotional loss of his high school heartthrob, Jackie Sanduski, causes him to leave Gum Town, Pennsylvania, to seek his fortune in Manhattan but with difficulty. Following several disastrous love affairs replete with hilarious sexual hijinks he returns to his hometown area as a patent lawyer and recluse living along with seven dogs and thirteen cats in an eighteen by twelve foot trailer in back of an amusement park. After several more zaney love affairs, while growing in wisdom, it is only after a visit from his pal and the narrator of this story, Joey Bonomoni (a professional comedian), that we learn this talented and gifted would-be composer has been alone with his fantasies brought-on by an accident that blinded his right eye followed by the loss of his deceased sweetheart. With his end looming on the horizon, Pendowski comes to terms with his life.
