The Dud Avocado by Elaine Dundy

3.0

i absolutely adore sally jay gorce and her silly little adventures <3 she's funny, intelligent, and melodramatic to the point of near-lunacy. love the range because all the men she interacts with are either suspiciously cool or unfathomably crazy. the setting made me green with envy because why am i not spending my days talking about art in parisian cafés or swimming at a beach in the south of france. that's actually sick and twisted.

if you liked slow days, fast company by eve babitz this is that but with americans in 1950s paris and so much unexpected homophobia i had to guffaw.
