Don Juan in the Village

Posted on 19 December 2017 by Jane DeLynn

From the lesbian bars of New York City to the back streets of Fez, from the SM scene in Los Angeles to the calm ocean depths off a Caribbean island, the heroine of Don Juan in the Village is ever on the prowl In search of the longed for, idealized lover, she finds instead a series of wrenching, sometimes hilarious encounters with an array of women, among them a movie star, a moroccan prostitute, and a high school dropout who works as a grocery store clerk Hip, sardonic, yet painfully self conscious and often deluded, she is convinced that no matter where she goes or whom she is with, she is doomed to perpetual solitude and estrangement.
