Nick Lasseter is in a slump--as a reporter for the "Waterloo
Weekly, " and in every other part of his life as well. When he
grudgingly agrees to write a piece about a rising female Republican
legislator, he stumbles onto a political fight in which the good
guys and bad guys start to seem interchangeable. And not even the
deceased can be relied upon to stick to their stories when Nick
gets involved with a political insider. As they search the dim
depths of a civic past that's anything but dead and buried, they
find that some things never change--things like the moral ambiguity
of practical politics and the sad, hilarious cluelessness of young
men in love.
Bittersweet and biting, elegiac and sharply observed, "Waterloo" is
a portrait of a generation in search of itself--and a love letter
to the slackers, rockers, hustlers, hacks, and hangers-on who
populate Austin, Texas--from a formidable new intelligence in
American fiction.
