Download or read book Young and Immortal written by Tommy Anthony and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2012-07-07 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: an excruciatingly honest portrayal of adolescence from the conscience of a mild-mannered, sensitive narrator contemplating the quirks of his stormy friendship with this obnoxious, manipulative, irresponsible brute of an incidental muse. From white upper-middle class suburban Cedarburg, Wisconsin to the streets of Milwaukee, this odd pair finds a common bond in drugs, girls, and music as their discordant values develop, are tested, and change with the coming of age and pressures of society. With thoughtful commentary, this scrapbook-like memoir is colored with anecdotes, poems, letters, and perspective character asides, set against the backdrop of the current events and popular music of the time, from Cobain's suicide to the Clinton scandal to the Packers winning the Super Bowl. Confronting the more crude aspects of growing up that popular literature would otherwise skip over, it puts the "adult" back in "young adult" literary fiction.

The Poet & the Virgin meet and fall in love in the smoky Midwest, just as the former is finally finishing college and the latter is just now looking at colleges. It is war time. And the people want a new president. Eugene is delivering pizzas to them with his faithful dog on his lap, a joint in his hand, and a Springsteen bootleg from The River tour cranking out some crooner about girls and cars from a buzzy stereo. The good dog licks tears from our hero's eyes, missing his young blue-eyed blonde with the bee-stung lips and thick-rimmed glasses, gone rainy Northwest. The tortured writer delivers another pizza. Another car bomb goes off in Iraq. And the one that got away, her name is Anomalee. This is the story of The Virgin & The Poet, in love, in times of war, in their Sunday Best Birthday Suits, through poetry, letters, dreams, and diaries.
