Description
Aubrey McKee is set in a city where everyone knows each other's business. Born and raised here, Aubrey navigates late adolescence amidst its old-monied decadence. He is surrounded by an eclectic mix of characters - drug dealers, junior tennis players, émigré heart surgeons, small-time thugs, renegade girls, and runaway children - all trying to make sense of the city they've been born into. This novel follows Aubrey and his companions as they try to find their place in this complex world. Part coming-of-age story, part social chronicle, it explores the myths that define our growing up. With its original voice, Aubrey McKee offers a fresh perspective on life in a city where everyone's business is always on display. Alex Pugsley's debut novel introduces readers to a breathtakingly original new voice, one that will resonate with anyone who has ever tried to find their place in the world.
