A college dropout falls into a downward spiral of substance abuse and self-destruction in this cult classic debut novel about love, addition, and wrong choices.
After flunking out of college, Travis is home for the summer, and he’s ready for his usual pastimes: drinking, drugging, watching porn, and hooking up.
But Travis isn’t settling in like he used to; something isn’t right. Maybe it’s that deadly debauch in Hawaii, the memories of which Travis can’t quite shake. Maybe it’s Laura, Travis’s ex, who reappears on the scene after a messy breakup and seems to want to get together—or not. Or maybe it’s his suddenly sensing how empty and messed up his life is…and wanting out.
But once you’re at the party, it’s tough to leave.
