His city is burning. Every night it becomes an inferno outside Gregory Thome’s apartment window: protests that turn violent, destructive, scorching. Gregory desperately wants to escape the simmering heat and finds himself fleeing to an historic hotel by the ocean for a weekend of quiet and solitude. The tranquility proves so captivating in meeting his ordinary desires that Gregory extends his stay for an entire week, even though he can barely afford it. Only quite slowly does the reader develop a sense that Gregory might have an ulterior motive for staying there, that a darker secret lies beneath his subconscious. There are strange occurrences in his room, including those sharp pieces of glass mysteriously scattered in there which become a mocking riddle for Gregory. Sharp Pieces of Glass is a powerfully grim novel that builds to a fiery ending that questions the entire nature of Gregory's troubled existence.
