Praise for the Outcast Missing Someone: A great summer read. David Biesty has created a rich and realistic world filled with a colorful cast of characters.
The New York City of the 1990's is a harsh place.Dan is a refugee from his past, working as a day laborer at small construction sites. He bonds with and then pushes back his Manhattan roommates as they live meagerly and muddled. A roommate's lover is critically ill and Dan's trip to Key West to support his friend becomes an emotional strain over the girl who doesn't want him.
Bitterness takes his thoughts.
A swing of fortune makes him financially comfortable. He moves to a renovated Brooklyn brownstone but leaves behind his friends and family. And alone he realizes he has little. Some rough advice from an old-timer on his new block makes him try for change.
But will he do the work required to make that change real?
The Outcast Missing Someone is the debut novel by David Biesty that recounts one man's journey through Manhattan and Brooklyn and his struggle to find a life. Also, by David Biesty, The Problem at the Orphanage.
