Product Description
'Connecticut Cocktail' is the first compilation of stories accumulated over the course of the author's life in the insular world of pampered elitists. D. Anderson Rocks has woven a handful of these tales into a captivating week in time which will leave the reader amused, disturbed and desperate to know who the characters really are.
From the Author
I knew that it was strange to build a private psychiatric facility at the edge of one's estate. I knew that it was strange to keep a harem of models in an apartment in New York. I knew that it was strange to cook meat under the hood of a Bentley but above all else I knew that it was strange to exist at a nearly toxic level of pharmaceutical saturation year after year. What I did not know clearly until I left Connecticut for good was how strange it was simply to know people who did not find these activities strange at all. This book is my first attempt to put in writing a few of the stories that have left new friends slack-jawed and wide-eyed wherever I've traveled.
