The Roaring Twenties were bellowing along-until they weren't. In a splintered bar in Boston, Pinky deVroom, newspaperman, amateur cynic and would-be-novelist, clutches his sour Prohibition brandy and watches his world get sucked down into the vortex. Hope comes in the form of an astute, comely literary agent named Elfred. But hope can be its own form of hell. Watch game Pinky twist, squirm and waffle while the world wobbles.
Literature has never had a hero named Pinky-but despite literature's measured qualms, this is its greatest chance.
