Vegas

A Memoir of a Dark Season

Beschreibung

"In the summer of my nervous breakdown, I went to live in Las Vegas, Clark County, Nevada.' So begins John Gregory Dunne's neglected classic of first-person writing, a mordant, deadpan, grotesque tale that blurs the line between autobiography and fiction, confession and reportage.
