At the dawn of the Reagan era Martin Bauman, clever, ambitious and insecure, wins a place under the tutelage of the legendary and enigmatic Stanley Flint, a man who can make or break writing careers with the flick of a weary hand. Martin is poised on the threshold of the writing life, his twin desires to get into print and to find his way out of the closet. Moving through the century's most licentious decade, Martin matures from brilliant student to apprentice in a Manhattan publishing house to fully fledged member of the New York literary brat pack. Subtle, erotic, honest and funny, 'Martin Bauman' lays bare the life of the artist, in all his venal, envious, self-loathing and poignant glory.
