Panama is the harrowing andhilarious story of a washed-up rock star with kamikaze passion in KeyWest—and is widely considered to be the most autobiographical novel of one ofour most important Americal writers, the author of Ninety-twoin the Shade and Cloudbursts
Chester Pomeroy is a one-time rock star turned casualty of illicit substances. In the hands of ThomasMcGuane, Chester’s story is a high-wire act of extravagant emotion andsteel-nerved prose. As he haunts Key West, pestering family, threatening apotential in-law with a .38, and attempting to crucify himself on his ex’sdoor out of sheer lovesickness, Chester emerges asthe pure archetype of the McGuane hero.
