註釋
Max Braun's first novel, Washashore, is the cautionary tale of Frank Cornacchia, addict, reprobate, and, perhaps, murderer. When Frank becomes a prime suspect in the Rachel Quartermain murder, his two-decade rollercoaster ride on Land's End--Provincetown and its environs--seems headed for an ignominious end. If the law fails to ground the Wildhorse, then his father-in-law and fellow suspect, local icon Gino Menet, is hell-bent on doing the world the favor. But mortals are not Frank's gravest concern. Norman Wycliff, his biographer-to-be, the man who makes the solemn promise to bring Frank's side of the story to the big screen, puts it all in perspective. Frank is the latest to be targeted by a local curse, whose predilection for just the wrong kind of soul--men who can't look at themselves in the mirror without cringing--has borne both heartache and tragedy on Outer Cape Cod since the arrival of the Mayflower. Can Frank outrun his pursuers--the men and the spirits who would see him snuffed out? Or is he, as Norman puts it, "the inextinguishable man"?
