In an American city of old churches and ambitious pagans, death comes calling for an elderly woman-a bit ahead of schedule. God takes a meeting or two, and the eternal questions arise. A funeral becomes a party, a son inherits a home with an uninvited guest, an iron lady is in the house, and they need more burgers down at the Weber grill. The Varieties of Erotic Experience blends the sacred, the profane, the urbane, and the humane into a tangy literary cocktail.
