Book excerpt: It's 1995. Tragically, Sybil Weatherfield is 30 years old. When she can, she works efficiently as an office temp. But in her jobless hours she logs time in the laundromat, waiting for the clubs to open, and fighting off her relenetless desire for the Epic Proportion Pancake Plate at the Pancake Piazza on Lexington Avenue. And when she stops obsessing long enough to consider what's missing in her life, she becomes the frank and fragile writer of "Abscess," a popular confessional column in the alternative weekly, New York Shock. Sybil's friends include Madeline, a paper-pusher for a human rights organization, Rob Shachtley, the wrecked lead singer of a rock band called Glass Half Empty, and a jaded assortment of pierced Quixotes with alternative living arrangements. Eager to leave the City--and desperate to stay--they all try to find a path from their own wry inactivitiy to something real and lasting that can matter to them. -- From cover p. [4].
