商品簡介
Catherine lives in a decaying Eastern port city, selling tickets in a porn theater. She spends her evenings watching the customers or gazing at the pictures of happy families she has clipped from magazines and taped to the glass of her booth - families so unlike the one that Catherine has escaped from that they constitute a ghastly joke.
In Live Girls, Nugent places this omniscient innocent at the center of a world where sleaze washes up against respectability. Catherine's boss wants to pair her up with his nephew Danny, who poisons pigeons for the city. Her best friend is an anorexic drag queen who dreams of Hollywood stardom. When Catherine tries to make those dreams come true, what ensues is an odyssey of dread and longing, blasphemous humor, and a nostalgia that is all the more poignant because it is directed at a past that existed only in our dreams.
