A quaint town overtaken by a new order. Antique dealers selling off the living room. Relationships that fizzle. Ensconced biddies with their Eau du Auld fighting the newest mayor, Ms. Service Industry. Who will win? And will Lisa, the young woman jogger with the Band-aid and the pink bandana ever return? In this novel a quest for earplugs tries its best to defy old age, young love, and the burden of change.

Often humorous and frequently savage commentary about a small town in the grip of progress. This, while in some sense true, hardly begins to describe the book, written from the point of view of a young man, unhappy with the changes and trying to escape the destruction of a small town environment and a way of life. The unusual writing style, reminding one of the writers of the 60's, is a delight. A great first book. I look forward to more from this author.
