By the author of The Detective. "Paul Thompson faces a soul-rending crisis in coming of age. First the never acknowledged sexual obsession between Paul and his beautiful half-sister must be resolved before he can claim his manhood. Then he will be tested in a violently hostile world as he realizes his love for a cool and beautiful white woman. Dionysus is as offbeat as The Detective in its dealing with whisper sex substituting incest for homosexuality. A scan of the mind of a black man in a white society."
