After Delores

Más información sobre el libro

In this new edition of Sarah Schulman's groundbreaking 1988 novel, the unnamed narrator is an abandoned coffee-shop waitress in New York's under-the-radar Lower East Side. No one cares about her and no one will stand up for her; she lives in the emotional anarchy that engulfs a lot of gay girls who have no place, no home. Her ex-girlfriend Delores knew all that, and exploited it, because she didn't want to be bothered, which is unbearable information to our waitress. Over the course of a few days, she goes on the prowl looking for someone to talk to, anyone really; but she doesn't expect to get immersed in a tangled web of seduction, poverty, and finally murder
