At its core, Missax is a novel about the complexities of human emotion, and the ways in which our desires and fears can both drive us and destroy us. Forde's characters are multidimensional and flawed, with all the attendant strengths and weaknesses that come with being human. Joe, the older brother, is a particularly fascinating study in contradictions – a man driven by a deep sense of responsibility, yet struggling to connect with those around him.
Charlie Forde wants you to want Missax better. 💋
