"Chris Jones has a gift for creating desire - a result of his own passionate desire to be anywhere but where he is, to be anyone but himself. Determined to break free from the constraints of his black working-class town, he uses his knack for creating effective ad campaigns to land a gig in London. Now, after having spent his twenties taking care of his dying mother, he has finally cut loose from his Philly roots.".
"But life takes a turn for the worse, and unexpectedly Chris finds himself back where he started, forced to return to Philadelphia. Surrounded by his brethren, the down and out, the indigent, the hopeless, Chris hits bottom. Only a stroke of inspiration and faith will get him back on his feet."--BOOK JACKET.
