About the book

Reginald Rutley lives on Bank Street. He peeps through the windows of his neighbors when the sun goes down. Sad and lonely, he lives life through the life of others. He is as weird on the inside as he is on the out. What does he see? Two scheming sisters plotting murder; a cheating husband; a basement bootlegger; an armless painter painting an armless nude and more. But the story is more than just about Reginald peeping through windows, it’s also about the spirit of a people and their love of a neighborhood and how that neighborhood brings them and holds them all together. Editorial Reviews “ ... Bank Street, a weird and wonderful place that’s a perfect setting for a modern-day fairy tale or a Fellini film.” -Kim Conklin, All Write in Sin City. (Windsor-Detroit podcast) “ … the text is full of humour, pathos, bathos and some darker elements. I think this is a splendid piece of work.” -Peter Snell, editor, Vine Leaves Press. (Australia) “Excellent comedic control and turns of phrase.” -Laurence Edmondson, Storgy Magazine (UK)
