โฆ Synopsis
Set in the steel ciy, this coming-of-age story tells the tale of Art Bechstein's first summer after college. Confused sexuality, identity crises, displaced ambitions, and vivid characters (a father who is a Jewish mobster, a capricious librarian named Phlox) combine to form an uproarious and lyrical narrative.
