The River Lethe

In Perry Pirsch's fictional tale, Drew O'Donnel sets out on the mythically titled river to find himself by shedding his "not so young" skin and building a new life. Drew is on a much more complex hunt than something as simple as an amateur search for acceptance for the gratification of his ego." I think that at one time or another, a good many of us have felt like Drew ("just want to run away and start over"). Read it and see if you can identify with him. At the very least you'll enjoy the story and get some really good laughs, and you might even learn something about yourself. Mr. Pirsch is a “class A” story teller.

He was educated at the University of Nebraska in Lincoln, where he studied Politics, Philosophy, History, English, Law, and Public Administration. Mr. Pirsch currently resides in Alexandria, Virginia, where he practices law and spends the majority of his time quietly watching television and getting out of household chores. Although he excels at nothing, he enjoys most leisure sports, all meals, a dark beer, the company of friends, more good dark beer, and reading late into the night followed by showing up late for work in the morning. He is currently twenty-eight-years-old, single, and, unlike his older brother, not still living at home.
