OverviewCloser to Home is J. Hayes Hurley's sixth hexalogy. In the first novel, Gal Friday Week, we follow the fortunes of a young woman who works in a modern publishing house. In the second novel, Nothingness, The Novel, we put a Japanese twist on existential thought. In the third novel, The Wise and the Learned, we give a modern interpretation to Ecclesiastes. In the fourth novel, The Anatomy of Small Stuff, we follow an obsessed ontology. In the fifth novel, A Terribly Long Night in Manhattan, the hero allows characters from famous books into his imagination. And in the sixth novel, A Reluctant Humanist, the hero works his way through all forms of Idealism, only to be stuck with human beings as they are. J. Hayes Hurley is the author of 87 novels, including Those Brownsville Blues and Dawkins and Daughter.
