Postcards from Los Angeles Nick Marcotte

Postcards from Los Angeles is a poetic memoir of years spent living in L. A. by Nick Marcotte. Affecting and vulnerable in its simplicity, Marcotte weaves a journey of a young man's passage from youth to experience - moving from past to present to past again; underscoring the way in which these time frames influence each other. Los Angeles provides a backdrop to Marcotte's meditations on romantic longing, honest pain, and many things in between. Ultimately, this is a joyful affair from an emerging writer whose subsequent work is worth watching for.
