Paperback. Etat : Fair. From a bright new talent, a witty, moving, and inspirational coming-of-age debut novel set in 1970s Brooklyn about a teenager and his abusive father whose obsession with broken down vintage cars careens wildly out of control.?Such a pleasure to read.

A budding young actor, Nicky is at once sensitive, resilient, exasperated, and keenly observant?especially when it comes to his father, Patrick. Undeniably enigmatic, and coasting on vanity, charm, and desperation, ?Himself? as Nicky calls his father, is given to picking up old car junkers, for cheap at NYPD auctions?each sputtering, tail-finned treasure subsidized by poker games.To Patrick, these chrome glamour tanks are his obsessions, repairable reminders of the past when he was young, and everything seemed new and gleaming and possible?before he had a family. For Nicky, each one is a milestone. Whether it?s a harrowing joy ride or a driving lesson, they?re unforgettable markers on his path toward an unpredictable future. But as Patrick?s compulsions slide into alcoholism and abuse, Nicky, his mother, and sisters brace themselves for an inevitable sharp turn in their addled lives.Narrated with humor and a rueful awareness, Car Trouble is an exhilarating novel about acceptance, regret, compassion, and finding your authentic adult self amid the rubble and rumble of growing up.…
