Description
A thrilling coming-of-age novel of the senses, following a small-town girl into the electrifying world of New York City and a life-changing education at one of Manhattan’s most exclusive restaurants. Newly arrived in New York, twenty-two-year-old Tess lands a front-of-house job at a celebrated downtown restaurant. What follows is her education in champagne and cocaine, love and lust, dive bars and fine dining rooms, as she learns to navigate the chaotic, enchanting and punishing life she has chosen. Set against the glitzy, grimy backdrop of New York’s elite restaurants, Sweetbitter follows a young woman’s coming of age while evoking the high-adrenaline world of the food industry, the infinite possibilities and unbearable beauty of youth, and the fragility and brutality of being young and adrift.
