Margie in the Morning - Paperback

by Robbie Saltaire (Author)

Sam Tanenhaus, former editor of the NY Times Book Review and Mary Lee Grisanti, chair of the Film Department at the School of Visual Arts, are a few of the advance readers who've enjoyed this joyous memoir. It begins on August 21, 2001 when Robbie Saltaire finds himself browsing on a website that claims it can Find Any Death. Despite that somber promise and its deceased title character, MARGIE IN THE MORNING is bursting with humor, optimism and pure delight at being alive in general and a young person in particular, wandering through Manhattan on a cool spring night in the early 1980's. John Lennon, Alice in Wonderland and the girls of his 4th-grade class are some of the stars that guide the author from the Metropolitan Museum through Central Park to his corner bar, his bedroom and finally back to the Park for a memorable morning after.
