Fiction. Literary Nonfiction. Parties are my library, says notorious party-crasher, Lower East Side denizen, and exuberantly idiosyncratic prose stylist Marvin Cohen. In this surrealistic suite of stories, dialogues and other party-dances, Cohen dissects party-going as both celebrant and philosopher, romping in the wildness and mystery of parties and finding there the pulse and throb and beat of our individual and collective natures. Edited and introduced by Colin Myers.
