VerkdetaljerAdriane on the Edge av Paul Mandelbaum
Ingen/inga Det finns inga diskussioner på LibraryThing om den här boken. i bought this book at target, i admit, because i needed something to read, and there was a dog on the cover. it is... odd enough that i read the whole thing, but i would not recommend it. the main character is a loser, who, admirably, is trying to make sense of her life, but (stop reading here if you dont want me to spoil anything for you) at one point, adriane is sleeping, and her dog bites off her ear. ??????? 1. why? 2. how could she sleep through that? 3. why is there a picture of a chihuahua on the cover when the dog is reportedly a sheltie? 4. was she on drugs? in all, not believable, not a good book.

Adriane Gelki wants desperately to cultivate a life of devil-may-care, transcendent abandon-the kind personified by her hero, Thelonious Monk. So far she has yet to manage it-to be completely abandoned-except by other people. Like her father, who killed himself when she was fourteen, and her mother, who followed suit ten years later. Now staring down thirty, Adriane's about to embark on a series of misadventures destined to change her life. In very short order, she manages to: get herself busted for flashing an undercover cop, break her court-appointed therapist's ribs, and ruin a perfectly pleasant orgy. For Adriane Gelki, things are finally starting to look up. This charming and incisive novel revels in the tragicomic journey of life-wherever it may lead. Inga biblioteksbeskrivningar kunde hittas. |
