Meld je aan bij LibraryThing om erachter te komen of je dit boek goed zult vinden. Op dit moment geen Discussie gesprekken over dit boek. The ultimate example of an immature author and self-styled hipster's glorified fantasy autobiography. Lots of lame attempts at pop music literacy, Boston culture, and the musician/artist's life. A nauseating read for anyone but scene-lit poseurs. ( )
Kennedy's writing rarely flags, and you can't help falling for her characters. Like rock-and-roll itself, they are both sloppy and eloquent, vulgar and earnest, dopey and poetic. ''The Exes'' is all those things, too -- and a lot more fun than dancing to architecture.
In one of the most critically acclaimed novels of recent years, Pagan Kennedy takes readers on a hip and hilarious tour of today's rock 'n' roll world. The Exes, an up-and-coming indie band, is made up of people who used to be lovers. Progressing from jam sessions in a basement to second-rate clubs to a cross-country tour that requires them to share seedy hotel rooms -- with their exes -- the four band members reveal their quirks, their problems, and their fantasies in alternating narratives. Wickedly funny, realistic, and poignant, "The Exes" sheds a knowing light on the compromises and connections we all make in avid pursuit of our ambitions and dreams.
