Against the historical backdrop of New York City in the
early 1990s, The Naive Guys: A Memoir of Friendship, Love
and Tech in the Early 1990s is a hysterical yet poignant
coming-of-age novel. Mark Amici embarks on a challenging
journey through the postcollege world, where he struggles
to
emerge from his sheltered upbringing to a life of sex,
love,
friendship, and career success. Fighting through the bad economy of 1991, Mark takes an
entry-level sales role at a growing tech company,
Fishsoft,
at the dawn of the Internet Age. Living at home with his gruff uncle, mother, and older
sister, Mark pursues his aspirations with a trio of
wingmen,
Pete, Sally, and Kostas. His quixotic search for love, his
desire to truly understand his family, and his pitfalls
through corporate machinations all provide a humorous
glimpse during an uneven period of life transition. Interwoven with key moments of the times, including the
Bill
Clinton and Rudolph Giuliani electoral victories, the
first
World Trade Center bombing, OJ Simpson, and New York's NBA
Knicks and NHL Rangers simultaneously in their respective
finals, The Naive Guys tells the story of one man's
journey
to uncover and fully understand his identity.
