Book Description
================
Mirabelle works as a shop assistant in the glove department at Niemans,
LA's finest store; she also draws darkly gothic pictures at night. Adrift
in the world and lonely, her situation is not improved by the fact that
hardly anyone buys the kind of gloves that Niemans sell, so she spends
most of her day leaning on the counter staring into empty space. There
are two men in her life - Jeremy, a man who stencils amplifiers for
a living, and Mr Ray Porter, an older man and millionaire who applies
logic to relationships, and is serially confused and disappointed. In
this exquisitely self-contained novel, Steve Martin touches on the surface
horrors of LA - the false noses, lips, breasts and people - without
exaggeration or explicitly playing for laughs. It's insightful, dark,
funny and tender.
