My Life With Wings

Imagine waking one morning to discover you have wings. Imagine the places you could go and sights you could see as you soar high above the world looking down with a true bird’s eye view. In this very funny yet strange story, our hero Eggerton wrestles with these decisions as he contemplates what to do with his life when he rises from bed and learns he possesses the power of winged flight.

The wonder in My Life With Wings comes courtesy of Marcovitz’s protagonist. His demeanor and thinking, that sometimes can appear as psychedelic, are diverse and believable. Throughout the story, Eggerton broods deeply over isolation, desire, and everything that revolves around his wings. As a divorced man, the protagonist’s life is actually normal and readers would definitely know one or two people like him - except for the wings, of course. His friends are a bunch of colorful people, each with their own degree of eccentricity and flaws… This novel is a fine allegory about life, aspiration, and how one perseveres against challenges. Absorbing the fun creative spirit of Marcovitz through this novella will keep readers fascinated from the beginning to the end. Simply put, this is a unique tale and a creditable triumph for the author who has created a book worthy of sitting on a shelf next to the works of other great writers.
