Description:For 19 year old Joey Montaperto, New York City in the 1980s was a paradox onto itself. Gritty and violent - yeah - but also crackling with excitement, intrigue and - especially - POSSIBILITY. For a young guy open to that kind of energy - this was a city that could be absolutely intoxicating. Enrolling in a prestigious Russian drama school, he is determined to be the next great actor. But when that doesn't pan out, he hits the streets even more conflicted and alienated, seeking answers. This story follows Joe from his gig as a nut vendor in grimy Hell's Kitchen to his introduction into Eastern spirituality; devoting himself entirely to the rigors of spiritual practice. That is until he is rocked by a major epiphany - stand-up comedy. Expertly taking the reader through the life of seedy bars, his rise up the ranks of the comedy scene, where the lure of fame consumes him, to his affair with a sultry former streetwalker - who is also transgender. As Joe revels in that scene, it fuels the rush, but it is still not enough. NOTHING ever is. Joe can't come down. His spiritual side is still strong and pulling him into another avenue. Where will it all lead?We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
