- Summary
- "The Unprofessionals follows the friendship between the narrator - a photographer in her late forties - and a young man whom she has known since his childhood and who has always shared the narrator's dismay about the way Americans live now: our discount chain stores, our incomprehensible architecture, our preoccupation with pets, our lack of manners. As the narrator takes us through the various stages of this friendship, she also tells the story of the young man's incongruous predicament on the path to heroin addiction and the absurdities of his attempted recovery."--BOOK JACKET.
