POKING KITTY PURPLE
Caroline Durieux is a single mother, a voracious reader of romance novels, a former actress with a bygone record of happy housewife commercials, and an obsessive-compulsive agoraphobe. When she wakes to a particular swimming pool crisis (complete encrustation after late-night mischief involving grape Pop Rocks) and the pool boy on call is far from her usual fare, all normalcy, as it were, unravels. But she may be this pool boy’s muse and he her chance for escape. Under the haze of the New Age awakening in Southern California in 1987, a single day's journey in the Durieux household is outrageous, disturbing and ultimately electrifying.
