Fiction
Stewart O’Nan has been called “the bard of the working
class” and has now crafted a frank and funny yet emotionally
resonant tale set within a vivid workaday world seldom seen
in contemporary fiction. Perched in the far corner of a run-down New England mall,
The Red Lobster hasn’t been making its numbers and
headquarters has pulled the plug. But manager Manny DeLeon
still needs to navigate a tricky last shift. With only four
shopping days left until Christmas, Manny must convince his
near-mutinous staff to hunker down and serve the final
onslaught of hungry retirees, lunatics, and holiday office
parties. All the while, he’s wondering how to handle the
waitress he’s still in love with, his pregnant girlfriend at
home, and the perfect present he still needs to buy. Last Night at the Lobster is a poignant yet redemptive look
at what a man does when he discovers that his best might not
be good enough.
