Dora's face, an aesthetic work in progress, exudes an unfinished blankness - as though God had become distracted and wandered away from the wet canvas before completing a meager handful of details. Not that any of this makes a difference to lovelorn Harry Jankowski.A Tale of Romance is a traditional story of romance, yet a new take on the Troubadours.Really, it is boy meets girl, but with one or two twists. A wonderful love story. And one that might have a happy ending. The reader will see if they do live happily ever after or they don’t. They might. The story has a would-be lover who talks about politics and is a general boor. How can he keep his girlfriend he adores? Perhaps by reinventing himself. Or is he never really going to change and always be a boor.
