Secret Frequencies : A New York Education Paperback / softback
by John Skoyles
Part of the American Lives series
Paperback / softback
Description
In this compelling memoir, John Skoyles guides us through 1960s New York.
Caught between his uncle Fred, a mob associate and man-about-town, and his aunt Linda, a secretary at Paramount Pictures on Times Square, the sixteen-year-old finds himself exploring everything from the bars and swank apartments of Manhattan's Upper East Side to the flophouses and haunts of Forty-second Street.
Secret Frequencies spins in graceful turns from deadpan hilarity to unflinching bleakness as Skoyles encounters New York’s most comic, absurd, and sometimes dangerous seductions.
