Did you grow up in a family of extreme narcissists and their enablers, or have you ever wondered what it's like to live in that kind of fishbowl environment? If so, The Jezebel Tracks is for you.

Gardner Landry's essays feature both overt and covert histrionic narcissists-at least one of whom likely qualifies as a psychopath-while also exploring the bizarre psychodynamics of his family. Along the way, he reflects on Houston and New Orleans, and the curious ways these cities relate to one another.

You'll meet Landry's dramatic, buffoonish father, his chillingly psychopathic side, and a maternal grandmother who is outwardly sweet yet privately manipulative-the queen bee of the family. Topsy-turvy gender roles, financial charades, and spiritual dimensions of abuse reveal themselves, as Landry examines what he believes to be the spiritual roots of these disorders, culminating in an unexpected journey toward redemption. Buckle up for the ride.

"Gardner expertly weaves deeply personal stories with biblical truth...to stand in solidarity with those who suffer as victims of covert Christian narcissists. However, Gardner doesn't leave us merely with the problem. In just about every essay, he makes it clear that the solution is a sincere belief in and an intimate relationship with the unique Son of God, the only One of his kind, and the One who triumphed over powers and principalities (including Jezebel): Jesus Christ." - Alex Tarasiuk, Pastor, Iglesia Conexión Vertical, Querétaro, México
