Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Moe Tremblay tries hard, but he's struggling with the trappings of domesticity, having just moved to Montreal with his wife to support her budding law career. He'll stay at home with the kids, they decide, while she climbs the corporate ladder. Then Dean shows up. Tall can in hand, and enticing him with tales of rock and roll glory and grime, Dean convinces Moe to join their band, Guilt Trippers. Moe follows him through a door to a lost boys' world of aging musician journeymen and a local music scene that is soiled and sexy, alluring and dangerous. Moe thought juggling childcare was hard; now he has fit it all in with weekly rehearsals, drug and alcohol addictions, and late nights at the bar. But increasingly, everything Moe does for himself seems to have dire repercussions for his family. A fictional story inspired by the author's experience as both a father and a musician, The Guilt Trippers is a darkly funny and moving account of modern parenthood, the Montré al music scene, and the musicians that make their home here.
