Haunted by the mistakes of her past, and lacking any self-belief, her only comfort seems to come from the imaginary conversations she has with Paul Newman, and the characters he played. But as life crawls on and she finds work, small acts of kindness start to reveal themselves to her, and slowly the chance of a new life begins to emerge. Full of memorable characters and imbued with a beautiful sense of yearning, Northline is a portrait of contemporary America."--BOOK JACKET.Vlautin, Willy is the author of 'Northline' with ISBN 9780061456527 and ISBN 0061456527.
