Title: Wake up and smell the beer
First published: 2003
Description: San Francisco's countercultural underground unleashes a wild tempest of melancholy and psychodrama on an unsuspecting world. Poets, drag queens, performance artists, musicians, and strippers wander in and out of a yearlong hangover through seedy nightclubs, all-night basement parties, intellectual upheavals, squalid urban adventures, and unexpected revelations. The hapless narrator's evolving relationship with a serious girlfriend combines with deep self-understanding, love and pain to reveal something true amid the chaos and madness.--Publisher's description.
