Bar Maid
Angebote / Angebote:
A sparkingly witty, poignant debut novel that is a Bright Lights Big City for a post-Reagan, pre-Y2K Philadelphia-for readers of Normal People, Sweetbitter, Modern Lovers, and Less. It's September 1987. Charlie Green is an eighteen-year-old romantic and aspiring alcoholic whose great wish is to fall in love with a light-eyed girl on his first day of college and never look back. Charlie believes in the magic of bars and girls. He believes he can use these talismans to finally feel at home, an assurance his dim and privileged New York City childhood did not provide. At Philadelphia's Samson Street Oyster House, he meets Paula Henderson, a beautiful and deceptively soulful waitress who is the most overqualified barmaid in all the city-and perhaps the most dangerous. In this darkly comedic coming-of-age novel, Charlie Green must grow up fast. At stake is his soul.
