Fun & Games - Paperback
Details
by David Michael Slater (Author)
A darkly hilarious, emotionally rich coming-of-age novel set in 1980s Pittsburgh, where a teenage boy navigates a wildly dysfunctional Jewish family, first love, faith, and identity in a story that balances outrageous comedy with genuine heartbreak.
The 1980's: it's the time of Dungeons & Dragons, banana clips, and Atari. Jonathan Schwartz is growing up in a family like no other. His sisters, Nadia, the dark genius, and Olivia, the gorgeous tease and temptress, manipulate Jon and his friends for their own entertainment. And his Holocaust survivor grandparents? Their coping techniques are beyond embarrassing. A disastrous visit to Jon's class by his grandmother unhinges his famous father, setting off a chain of events that threatens to send the dysfunctional Schwartz clan up in flames once and for all. Fun & Games is a heartbreaking and hilarious story of faith, family secrets, betrayal, and loss-but it's also a tale of friendship, love, and side-splitting shenanigans.Author Biography
