Adam and Eve Gave Birth to an Eviction Lawyer

From the author who showed how blinking weird law school can be (LAW SCHOOL RED INK WHITE COLLAR BLUES) comes the bizarre week in the life of DJ, a 39-year-old eviction lawyer who thinks if he can get through life without hurting anyone too badly he might have a chance at eternal happiness. But when legal missteps threaten to indebt him to the worst of his landlord clients, DJ must grapple with the meaning of sin and salvation in a world where the risk of being forever banished from Paradise seems suddenly very real. Kenneth David Westphal has crafted a courtroom drama with a conscience -- a stunning portrait of the U.S. legal system as it affects the least among us. Part legal thriller (THE RAINMAKER), part social study (NICKEL AND DIMED), and part religious self-examination (CONFESSIONS), ADAM AND EVE GAVE BIRTH TO AN EVICTION LAWYER will change the way you think about the laws that govern all our lives.
