List #56: An Alphabet for December -- U

[An incomplete guide to some of the things I wrecked this year.]



"U" Is for ... The Unprofessionals




What: The Unprofessionals is a tragicomedy about a reclusive photographer in her late 40s and her best friend, a 21-year-old boy with some shared neuroses but very different coping mechanisms.

Comparable to: This narrator also appears in Julie Hecht's other work, including Do the Windows Open? and Happy Trails to You.

Opening lines: "It was the second month of living without a soul and I was getting used to the feeling."

How to get it: Buyable, borrowable, Kindle-able.

Connections to previous Wreckage: Do the Windows Open? was Rec. #321 and Happy Trails to You was Rec. #6.
