Ebooks by Celebrated Novelist Lowry Pei Now Available from TheWriteDeal
How far over the edge are we willing to go for love? In “Is This Love?”, a Japanese-American Ph.D. candidate in East Asian Studies meets a stunningly sexy, cold blonde in a Palo Alto bar. His tyrannical advisor has threatened him with losing his place in the program if Peter doesn’t submit a thesis proposal the man can approve. But Peter has more to lose than his career as the mysteriously damaged Margo begins alternately inspiring and torturing him with her enigmatic wishes, leading him to places he never imagined he’d go.
“Over the Fence,” a sensuous and uncanny novel, charts the wild disintegration of a love-struck narrator who, after being left by his girlfriend and suffering a near-death experience, begins digging a large hole in his back yard. Compulsion propels Lucas deeper and deeper into a mythical realm where he encounters a number of otherworldly guides—an off-beat cast that includes a janitor, a tailor, and a mysterious woman named Alison who may just help him get where he needs to go.

About Lowry Pei
Lowry Pei's novels are about the universal experiences of love and sex, marriage and family, divorce and death, and the undercurrent running beneath them is the never-finished struggle with aloneness that comes with being human. His beautiful and subversive stories are on the side of the unspoken, the not allowed, the secret inner life. They honor the longing for deeper truths that lurks inside our hearts and desires. They are about breaking out, defying resignation and disillusionment, holding onto the burning hope that unimagined possibilities still await us. His first novel, Family Resemblances, was published by Random House. His stories have appeared in Best American Short Stories 1984 and The American Story: The Best of StoryQuarterly. He has published short stories, essays, memoirs, and works of criticism, and reviewed books for The New York Times. He lives in Cambridge, MA and teaches writing at Simmons College.
