In The Lousy Adult, William J. Cobb reveals a world where love and respect collide with achievement and desire, a world where people often get what they want, yet must pay the price of alienation, remorse, and retribution in order to obtain it. In 'The Sea Horse,' a teenage boy defends a battered woman against her abusive husband while he deals with the loss of his own parents. In 'Warsaw, 1984,' a young man travels through Europe and ends up in a relationship in a country he cant understand. The Lousy Adult presents ten short stories about defrocked priests, guilty electricians, hardened mothers, and other colorful characters who portray the complexity of the human race.
