Love Slave - Paperback
by Jennifer Spiegel (Author)
"I can write the pants off any man," declares Sybil Weatherfield, the plucky hero of Jennifer Spiegel's Love Slave. A literary novel set in 1995 New York, Love Slave follows Weatherfield and her strange friends as they frustrate chick-lit expectations (though they're unaware that they're doing so) in this uproarious, genre-breaking spree. By day Sybil is an office temp, and by night she's a columnist for New York Shock, a chatty rag in which she writes a column called "Abscess" -- a wound that never heals. Her friends include a paper-pusher for a human rights organization, and the lead singer of a local rock band called Glass Half Empty. Full of cultural detail, mid-'90s observations, and early adulthood anxieties, Weatherfield's story of finding love ultimately casts an ironic eye on what it means to be a love slave.
