Sommelier of Deformity - Nick Yetto - Bog

Buddy is a strange, unattractive, and short man. He lives in a decrepit town in upstate New York with his oddball mother and invalid grandfather. What the family lacks in stature, they make up for in frill. Their life is a working-class hallucination of blueblood extravagance, complete with dramatic readings from first-editions and lavish meals. Buddy's days are spent running his web design company from his chambers, and his nights are spent slipping away for covert liaisons with women - not just any women. He considers himself a "sommelier of deformity; a coveter of the unloved." Buddy is flawed if nothing else - he's arrogant, at war with his neighbor over a stolen book, and admittedly very racist. When Terrance, his grandfather's new African-American nurse, proves to be an incredibly talented musician and a good friend, Buddy's world is turned upside-down as he struggles to understand his changing value system.
