Welcome to Neopolitan, a vibrant city teetering on the edge of hipster discovery, set in the tumultuous year of 1998. Erin Patricia Pierce has just celebrated her twenty-first birthday and is determined to accomplish three ambitious goals: 1) escape her mother's house before their relationship implodes; 2) quit her job at the pizza parlor (ideally before 'Ed the Head' can fire her) and secure a position at the notorious Acid Pit club; and 3) win the heart of the charming guy with hazelnut cream eyes. Enter Alexander G.J., the mastermind behind over a hundred eccentric characters-freaks, victims, geeks, villains, super-freaks, allies, and super-super-freaks-who will either aid or obstruct Erin on her increasingly obsessive quests. You'll find yourself rooting for Erin as she battles her greatest adversary: herself. At the same time, you'll shake your head at the reckless, hormone-driven choices that propel her into a delightfully chaotic descent through a myriad of rabbit holes.
