Publisher's summary

Virtuoso rock guitarist, Marty May, found glory at a young age, living the high life of a rock star in New York City during the 1970’s. Then his promising career, along with his marriage, slipped away and at thirty-three he is living alone, broke without a record contract while being hassled by collection agencies. Marty fears that he has blown both his career and a chance at a normal life and wonders if he should go back to playing the blues alongside his first mentor Blind Red Rose. Set in the 1980’s when times turned rough for true rockers and the music business became more about the business then the music, Marty May is the story of a man both vulnerable to temptation yet trying to remain true to his most precious beliefs. Both elegant and tragic like The Great Gatsby in the age of rock ‘n roll, Elliott Murphy’s legendary first novel already successfully published in French, Spanish and German editions is now finally available in English in it’s full original version.
