E la sorte volle che questo incongruo monumento, oggi considerato un luogo d'arte, sorgesse a Chartres. Dapprima fonditore, poi pulitore di rotaie e alla fine custode di discariche e cimiteri, Raymond Isidore, detto Picassiette, raccolse instancabilmente nella spazzatura frammenti di tazze, piatti e bicchieri, con i quali ricopriva ogni superficie e ogni suppellettile della sua casa.

In this coming-of-age memoir we meet Richard, a handsome, charming, mischievous, great guy with a fondness for the 1980s party drug of choice, cocaine.

Despite obstacles beyond their control, they are exactly what each other is drawn to as they set about doing the best they can, in all four seasons of their beautiful, one-season town, Provincetown, MA.
