Wake Up And Smell The Beer (Paperback, New)

In this uproarious novel, ridiculous characters emerge from San Francisco's countercultural underground to unleash their melancholy psychodrama on an unsuspecting world. Poets and vampires, drag queens and performance artists, musicians and strippers commingle throughout a yearlong hangover. Where will it end? Is there a 12-step program for these extreme cases? Already touted in Publishers Weekly as part of the emerging "dick lit" trend, Longhi's ability to render distinctly memorable characters and zero in on subterranean absurdity makes this a rollicking urban ride.
