The Story

Wilton Barnhardt's novel of coming of age in New York City brims with energy, surprise, irresistible humor, and the heady rush of youth. Its hero, Gil Freeman, a mid-western aspiring actor, comes to the city in search of stradom--but instead encounters the perils of Alphabet City, the desperation of off-off-off Broadway theater...and the exhilarating, exasperating, absolutely unique Emma, around whom his life comes to turn. Charming and engaging, quintessentially American, Emma Who Saved my Life is one of the extraordinary fiction debuts of our time.
