The Amazing and Death-Defying Diary of Eugene Dingman
language
(Graymalkin Media Nov. 4, 2016)
On June 26, Eugene Dingman threw a wooden spoon at his mother, and before he knew it, he’d been packed off to a summer waiting tables at the Lake Henry Hotel, where New York’s wealthiest come to bake their skin a nice leathery brown. Sustained only by his diary and a burning desire to be a famous writer, Eugene settles in for three months of torment. And then he meets Della, and everything changes.
The problem is, Della hardly notices Eugene exists and a local bully is intent to humiliate Eugene, whenever Della is around. To add to his Eugene’s misery, his absent dad won’t respond to his letters, and his mom may be romantically involved with a mafia hit man.
What doesn’t kill you can only make you stronger. The Lake Henry Hotel may do both.
