Bøker av Ivan Jenson

Thirty-five-year-old Wendy Shaw has just been, as she puts it, "unleashed" from a three-month stay in a psychiatric institution in New York. Now, seeking emotional respite in her older sister's West Michigan home, Wendy makes the conscious decision to give up her cosmopolitan life as a trendy nightclub promoter to take time to heal from the death of her three ex-lovers: one by suicide, one by bludgeoning in Greenwich Village, and the third from "natural causes" in his Upper West Side condo. When Wendy's sister sets her up on a blind date with a local home contractor, she wonders if she can ever allow herself to love again. Is Wendy's love life forever tainted and cursed? This traumatic shift reveals the dangers of being a fatally passionate woman like Wendy. Ivan Jenson's The Tigress is a tour de force of psychological suspense that will take the reader deep within the inner workings of Wendy's fragile mind, as she finally discovers that for her, love and death might be irrevocably intertwined.

East of Ivan is Amazon's #1 best-selling poet and author Ivan Jenson's sweeping, raw, comic memoir of his personal and artistic journey as an iconic pop artist. It's a bumpy, thrilling ride from Los Angeles to Costa Rica, Bloomington, New Rochelle, and finally, the gritty streets of New York City, where he achieves unexpected, unprecedented success as a painter in the historic East Village art scene of the '80s. Ivan is an endearingly egocentric, East Coast Don Quixote; and this emotionally charged chronicle of his early life contains plenty of manic, misguided, yet always engaging rodomontade. East of Ivan is a laugh-out-loud hilarious and histrionic on-the-road-style howl of a confessional memoir; a rags-to-riches cautionary tale about the soul-shattering addiction of artistic ambition in downtown New York City. Yet, it leads Ivan into unforgettable misadventures of heartache and triumph.
