Publisher's Synopsis
Restlessly drifting from the sprawling suburbs of Florida to Eastern Europe, New York, and Hollywood, Faye Postma has spent her adult life hopping from city to city in the pursuit of living a life worth writing about. Whether bartending in a NYC dive, being stalked by a murderous cat, or falling in love with a con man, Faye creates a patchwork of humorous and heartbreaking stories in 25 Addresses.
Spanning thirty years-from a ten-year-old grappling with her mother's depression to a woman in her thirties crossing the country during the pandemic-each chapter weaves together a Xennial journey that explores love, loss, and failure in a climate of booms, bubbles, and bursts. Whether wrestling a surfboard off the coast of St. Augustine, getting robbed in Bucharest, or searching the streets of LA for the perfect corner bar; Faye delivers each chapter with a wry sense of humor anda dose of 90s and 00s pop culture. 25 Addresses is for anyone who identifies with the lost generation between Gen X and Millennial, Sex and the City fans, NYC-dwellers, LA-residents, foodies, alcoholics, the sexually-confused, dog lovers, toilet-reading luddites, bartenders, mac and cheese cravers, and Tom Petty listeners. If you enjoy Chuck Klosterman, David Sedaris, and rambling Facebook posts from that friend you never talk to but are curious if she's getting divorced, this book is for you.
