Dan Fante's Spitting Off Tall Buildings is the story of aspiring writer and part-time drunk Bruno Dante, who leaves sunny Los Angeles for cold, hard New York City.
Falling into a string of temporary, dead-end jobs, punctuated by meaningless affairs and intense drinking, Bruno has almost had enough when a sudden event offers him the opportunity to get his life back on track - unless screwing up, like drinking, proves a habit too difficult to shake.
In prose steeped with rage and surprising humor, Fante presents a point of view of America that only the true outlaw will recognize.
This book is part of the "Bruno Dante" series.
