| Description: |
This compelling and unconventional coming-of-age story of a young female newspaper reporter in New York City was originally published serially in The New Yorker. When it first came out it took readers and critics by storm, winning the 1976 Ernest Hemingway award for Best Novel. This reprinting marks the long-overdue return of a modern classic. Speedboat is not a conventional novel with a conventional narrative it is composed out of seemingly unrelated vignettes tart observations distilled through ever-relentless intellect which add up to an analysis of a brittle, urban life. |
