MOTEL STORIES

My short story collection takes an empathetic deep dive into the eccentricities and troubled lives of the diverse guests who check in at the Sunset Inn, a refuge of last resort on the seedy end of Hollywood Boulevard.

“William Torphy’s elegant narration creates a gauzy veil of tears through which we view a poignant, if haphazard, community of immigrants, down-and-outers, weirdos, and dreamers who use the Sunset Inn, a dilapidated Hollywood motel, as staging ground for their personal crises and epiphanies. Torphy loves his characters, but it’s a tough love that finds the poetry of real life in their desperate words and actions.”—Marc Jampole, Author of The Brothers Silver
