Description
What was Eli Shaffner thinking? He had it all. An attractive, intelligent girlfriend, a wealthy family, the perks of privilege. He had the opportunity to build the kind of life most people can only dream about. But a few obstacles got in his wayalust, pride, a high-minded sense of professional purpose, and a profound aversion to living like the rich, guilt-ridden Jews he felt surrounded by. So Eli, a Chicago-area tennis pro with a thirst for philosophy, a commitment to Yoga, and a passion for an exotic beauty named Malaika, decides to throw it all away and build a life on his own terms, a task that will prove far more difficult, and dangerous, than he could ever have predicted. In the darkly comic tradition of Saul Bellow and Philip Roth, Moments of Doubt is the emotionally charged account of how a man makes his way through passion, pain, and paradox toward the cathartic realization that sometimes, in the end, the very things you thought were destroying your life prove to be the only things that can make you happy.
