Feeling guilty about his good fortune, he offers his spare bedroom - rent-free - to Billy, a talented, charismatic classmate from the Midwest eking out a hand-to-mouth existence in Manhattan. The narrator's rapport with Billy develops into the friendship he's never had due to a lifetime of holding people at arm's length, hovering at the periphery, feeling 'fundamentally defective.' But their living arrangement, not to mention their radically different upbringings, breeds tensions neither man could predict. Interrogating the origins of our contemporary political divide and its ties to masculinity and class, Apartment is a gutting portrait of one of New York's many lost, disconnected souls by a writer with an uncommon aptitude for embodying them. 650 0 $a Male friendship $v Fiction. $0 (DLC)sh2008107166 650 0 $a Loneliness $v Fiction. $0 (DLC)sh2008107118 650 0 $a Apartments $v Fiction. $0 (DLC)sh 85005927 650 0 $a Roommates $v Fiction. $0 (DLC)sh2008110985 650 0 $a Large type books. $0 (DLC)sh 85074712 651 0 $a New York (N.Y.) $v Fiction. $0 (DLC)n 79007751 655 7 $a Large type books. $2 tlcgt 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Coming of age fiction. $2 tlcgt 941 $a 1 945 $a lpt 952 $l DPPE403 $d 20240611012507.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=2C22BA0827B811EF9FBFAF4235ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
