Bewilderness: a novel
(Book)
Description
A lonely nineteen-year-old working at a local pool hall accepts an invitation from her charismatic coworker to take revenge on a creepy customer, leading to an amazing friendship but also an introduction to pills and hustling to maintain the high.
Rural North Carolina. Irene works long nights at the local pool hall, serving pitchers and dodging drunks. One evening magnetic coworker Luce invites her on a joy ride through the mountains to take revenge on a particularly creepy customer. Their adventure seduces both girls into the mysterious world of pills and the endless hustles needed to fund the next high. They run nickel-tossing scams at the county fair and trick dealers into trading legit pharms for birth-control pills. When Luce finds a boyfriend who wants to help her get clean, they decide to move away and start a new, sober life in Florida-- leaving Irene behind. -- adapted from jacket
