Overview

The sun sets upon the '90s, and the new millennium stretches ahead. In the heart of Bay Area California, wayward teens drift through skateparks and parking lots. Best friends get neglected and friendships are tested. Blue Raspberry is a coming-of-age story bathed in the sweet heartache of nostalgia. Fly-by-night startups and fast company. Coke and Prozac in the land of absent parents. Literary fiction for nü-metalheads and escapism for the damned. Every hero's journey has lied to you: Life is a mosaic of suffering. It stretches on and on like an endless film reel. All I've done is clip a few segments for you to witness. ""With shades of KIDS, SALTBURN and THE GRADUATE, Remo Nassutti's Blue Raspberry is a coming-of-age West Coast homage to the post-Y2K era. A sharply written debut novel about lost boys, lost innocence, and the millennial young adult experience."" - Wendy Dalrymple, author of CREDENZA and BIRTHDAY PARTY DEMON ""A sorrowful dirge to a lost generation raised on anti-depressant cocktails, Blue Raspberry is powerful and poignant, beautiful and existentially disturbing, passing like summer under a diseased sky."" - Coy Hall, author of THE OWL MEN OF SHANIDAR ""Blue Raspberry reads like a transmission from the edge of adolescence and America. It's a new classic for the medicated, alienated, over-stimulated generation."" - Neda Aria, author of US, WOMEN and RED WINGS
