Beschreibung

<p><strong>A profoundly disturbing novel that ruthlessly dissects American life in the late 1960s, from the author of <em>The White Album</em> and <em>The Year of Magical Thinking</em>.</strong></p><p><em>One thing in my defence, not that it matters: I know what 'nothing' means, and keep on playing</em></p><p>Somewhere out beyond Hollywood, hollowed-out actress Maria Wyeth's life plays out in a numbing routine of perpetual freeway driving. In her early thirties, divorced from her husband, dislocated from friends, anesthetized to pain and pleasure, Wheth is a woman who has run out of both desires and motives - the epitome of a generation made ill by too much freedom.</p><p>More than five decades after its original publication, <em>Play it as it Lays</em>remains a profoundly disturbing novel that ruthlessly dissects American life in the late 1960s, from the author of <em>The White Album</em> and <em>The Year of Magical Thinking</em>.</p>
