To her, it's the "perfect place to give up." She wants to get rid of everything?her stuff, her ambitions. Before making a "messy exit," she holes up in a dark bar and tells her stories to an audience of indifferent strangers. There's the time the river dried up and you could walk across its bed, the day her sister got clobbered at the nursing home, the time her dad got cancer, then Alzheimer's, then cancer again. Now she's forgetting things the way he did, words slipping away, and that third drink isn't helping. Laura Adamczyk, whose writing is "super weird" and "super unsettling" (Eugenia Williamson, The Boston Globe), creates a full portrait of a person, even as the image blurs and fades. Delivered as a booze-soaked monologue, Island City is a funny, devastating first novel, one that bristles and burns with true feeling.
