Notes
Description
"Late 70s. Oakland, a cheap and quirky haven for eccentrics, dreamers, junkies, and neer-do-wells. The 60s flower power dream has faded but the party rages on. Madge is working at the Imperial Caf̌ while trying to be a cartoonist for The National Lampoon. The lives of her coworkers are derailed by drugs and broken hearts as Madges ambition drives a wedge between her and those around her. Mimi Pond deftly captures the hyper-reality and melodrama of an artist in their early 20s when every heartbreak is the end of the world and every experience is an epiphany.
Description
"This is a continuation of Mimi Pond's book Over Easy, a memoir of her time working amongst the hippies and punks of the wisecracking, fast-talking, drug-taking Imperial Café. Pond's story is equal parts time capsule of late 1970s life in California - with its deadheads, punks, disco rollers, casual sex and drug use - and bildungsroman of a young woman from naïve, sexually inexperienced art-school dropout to self-aware, self-confident artist. Mimi Pond's chatty, slyly observant anecdotes create a compelling portrait of a distinct moment in time."--,Provided by publisher.
