The Remove by Scott Tienken

THE ADULT IS THE GHOST OF THE CHILD. For Ronette Okampo, a cycling champion, and Sid Doe, her boyfriend and coach, becoming a parent is scary business. Still haunted by painful childhoods, they will turn to a wildly unorthodox parenting style to raise their special needs child and attempt to break the cycle of unhappy family life. Desperate to keep their controversial methods private, they will hide out from their brothers and sisters in The Co-op, the do-gooder cult they work for, but be relentlessly pursued by Belladonna Mabuse, The Co-op's chief benefactress. A needy cast of characters will turn to voodoo, astral projection, hardcore workout regimens, breaking and entering, and countless other self-help strategies to escape their own personal removes and untangle their wildly mismatched notions about love and community. Part whacko meditation on parenthood, part ghost story, The Remove is teeming with lost children, wayward souls, discombobulated families, and wild pedal strokes. Prepare to become reacquainted with your inner-child.
