BOOK SUMMARY Before there was man, before there was woman there was bowling. Against a backdrop of urban upheaval and familial tumult, Rich Roeb and Barbara Stewart-Ridge used their fingers as an impetus to roll their souls into a long-term, lip locked, perfect game. Against great odds, and despite often being on the gutter side of Karma, their love would not be denied. They were meant to be, and bowl, as one.

Two men of different ages are of the same hypnotic coccyx bent. Mouths fall agape wherever they hone their craft in public. They could bring a town to its knees in a matter of waist swiveling minutes or a sturdy woman to her knees with a vampish snarl of the lip. Together they made a city where lives collectively live to grotesque excess look like an amateur. They were Brothers in Pelvis.
