Jen Fain is a journalist negotiating the fraught landscape of 1970s
New York. Party guests, taxi drivers, brownstone dwellers,
professors, journalists, presidents, and debutantes fill these
dispatches from the world as she finds it. Simultaneously novel,
memoir, commonplace book, confession, and critique - Speedboat is
funny, disturbing, cutting, brilliant unlike anything that had come
before. Since it burst onto the scene in the 1970s, it has
enthralled generations of readers and been a touchstone for writers
including David Foster Wallace, Claudia Rankine and Jenny Offill.
