About the book

Im magischen Sommer nach dem Collegeabschluß will Art Bechstein Pittsburgh auf den Kopf stellen. Und wird selbst auf den Kopf gestellt. Er versinkt völlig in den glitzernd bunten Geheimnissen der grauen Industriestadt. Der erste Roman eines jungen amerikanischen Autors--witzig, spritzig, melancholisch, mitreißend. Die verführerische Geschichte des heißen Sommers, als Art Bechstein erwachsen wurde.

Subjects: Fiction, coming of age, Pittsburgh (pa.), fiction, Fiction, city life, Fiction, College students, Young men
