And a character arc that was just a downward spiral. What an atrocity. ( ) The book started out as a pretty funny account of a fuck-up's life in New York during the gritty '80s, but I started to lose interest as the protagonist's luck continued to climb with one preposterous event following another. Once women implausibly started throwing themselves at him I gave up entirely. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
Arthur Nersesian's underground literary treasure is an unforgettable slice of gritty New York City life. This is the darkly hilarious odyssey of an anonymous slacker. He's a perennial couch-surfer, an aspiring writer searching for himself in spite of himself, and he's just trying to survive. But life has other things in store for the fuck-up. From being dumped by his girlfriend to getting fired for asking for a raise, from falling into a robbery to posing as a gay man to keep his job at a porno theater, the fuck-up's tragi-comedy is perfectly realized by Arthur Nersesian, who manages to create humor and suspense out of urban desperation. "Read it and howl," says Bruce Benderson (author of User), "and be glad it didn't happen to you." Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
