Wacky Characters and Authentic Local Scenes,
By
This review is from: Sweet, Savage Death (Paperback)
Papazoglou's strong suits are her descriptions of wacky characters and authentic local scenes. Among the idiosyncratic people we meet in this story are a fifty-five year old tattoed, coccaine-addicted ex-prostitute and a thirty year old virgin famous for writing the sexiest books in the romance field. There is also one very kleptomaniacal cat. The best New York descriptions include a special Greek restaurant and a trip through parts of 42nd Street and Ninth Avenue.
