San Francisco’s underground unleashes a wild tempest of melancholy and psychodrama on an unsuspecting world. Poets, drag queens, performance artists, musicians, and strippers wander in and out of a yearlong hangover through seedy nightclubs, all-night basement parties, and unexpected revelations. The hapless narrator’s evolving relationship with a serious girlfriend combines with deep self-understanding and pain to reveal something true amid the chaos.
