Back Cover Summary –
Author Cusper Lynn dons the persona of dentist Dr. Cusper Lynn, DDS as he takes us on a guided tour of Divorce in the Age of Social Media.
While doing legal battle with his soon-to-be-ex-wife Dr. DeeAnn Lynn, DDS and seeing it broadcast on Facebook, Cusper finds himself beset by property association officers, opera zealots and well-meaning friends. In the comic adventure that follows questions are answered about evolution, a test for the divorce gene, the secret prayer of every parent and the most pressing question for Dr. Cupser Lynn, DDS; “Why Florida?”
Members of the press have inquired as to whether Cusper Lynn has been through a divorce and if this was the basis for this novel.
Answer: Yes, he has been through a divorce and yes, facebook figured heavily in that experience. No, the book is not based on it. As the divorce was far more absurd and could not be rendered plausible; even as a work of fiction.
