Charming Billy: Synopsis
Everyone loved him. If you knew Billy at all, then you loved him. The late Billy Lynch's family and friends, a party of forty-seven, gather at a small bar and grill somewhere in the Bronx to remember better times in good company, and to redeem the pleasure of a drink or two from the miserable thing that a drink had become in Billy's life. His widow, Maeve, is there and everyone admires the way she is holding up, just as they always admired the way she cared for Billy after the alcohol had ruined him. But one cannot think of Billy Lynch's life, one's own relentless affection for him, without saying at some point, "There was that girl. The Irish girl". And one can't help but think that the real story of his life lay there.

Book Description: Dial Press, 1999. Soft cover. Book Condition: New. Book Description Billy Lynch's family and friends have gathered at a small Bronx bar. They have come to comfort his widow and to eulogize one of the last great romantics, trading tales of his famous humor, immense charm, and unfathomable sorrow. As they linger on into this extraordinary night, their voices form Billy's tragic story and their mourning becomes a gentle homage to all the lives in their small community fractured by grief, shattered by secrets, and sustained by the simple dream of love. Ingram Winner of the National Book Award, "Charming Billy" tells the story of the late Billy Lynch within the complex matrix of a tightly knit Irish American community, in a voice that is resonant and filled with deep emotion. From the Back Cover "Eloquent .. heartbreaking .. McDermott is brilliant. " — The New York Times Book Review "There's no one like Alice McDermott for catching the ebullient particulars of the Irish-American sensibility, and in this superbly drawn, bittersweet tale of a captivating alcoholic, Charming Billy, her touch is light as a feather, her perceptions purely accurate." — Elle "An astoundingly beautiful novel about the persistence of love, the perseverance of grief, and all-but-unbearable loneliness, as well as faith, loyalty and redemption." — The Philadelphia Inquirer "Magical .. In Charming Billy, Ms. McDermott writes .. with wisdom and grace, refusing to sentimentalize her characters even as she forces us to recognize their decency and goodness. She has written a luminous and affecting novel." — Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times About the Author Alice McDermott is the bestselling author of Charming Billy, A Bigamist's Daughter, and That Night, a 1987 National Book Award Nominee. She lives with her family outside Washington, D.C. Bookseller Inventory # ABE-865205472 [Bookseller & Payment Information] [More Books from this Seller] [Ask Bookseller a Question] |
